It's not about answering questions all the time, it's about having an actively evolving dialogue...
One which helps identify things they've neglected to think about much or at all, not just one that satisfies curiosities or eases concerns of devs/end-users.
This has all been discussed/explained, they did initially see the value in it & planned to engage, that died quickly though unfortunately.
Twitter/FB & the media drip-feed are far too ad-hoc for that sort of thing, we had a chance to do something with much more substance.
Anyway, all is not completely lost yet I guess, hopefully shmerl will get some more responsiveness from them soon, maybe I'll try again.
