Comment 53 for bug 51043

@wribeiro:

They won't. That's why open source software sucks. Someone or some people start a project and then release something which is full of bugs and then they have some great ideas they want to work on and start developing those great features, but they don't like to fix bugs and because it's open source the developer(s) just say: "It's open source, so fix it yourself if it's bothers you."

I hate that mentality of open source developers. They only care about the features they want to see implemented, but they really don't care about fixing bugs, even if those bugs still aren't fixed after ten years. The bugs don't bother them, so they just don't fix them. If you want them to be fixed, then you'll have to do it yourself.

Do they really think everyone has programming skills? Besides that: If you develop something, then release something usefull or don't release anything at all. If you don't want to listen to your users and don't care about fixing bugs, then just keep the software and code for yourself. Just use it on your own computer and don't release anything at all. Only release your software to the public if you're willing to listen to the people who use it and are willing to fix the bugs they report.
