Of course I care, I care about what OS is going to be available to me in
the coming months and years. But I don't care about the pointless
vitriolic comments by people pusruing their own agendas. Normally these
statements tend to be made by people on the edges of development, while
the core people get on with the job. sometimes they are drawn in too.

Is there any other kind?

Useful opinions are fine. But this thread has long since ceased to
contain many of those. Comments like "you should be able to work it out"
only encourage ill-informed speculation and rumour.

Another casualty of the bickering :(
