Okay, I know there's a smiley there, but this rant can't be stopped:

"If you want it, write it yourself," has to be the lamest excuse for an argument ever. Are you seriously claiming that only programmers and/or developers are allowed to express criticism about software, whether it be Open Source or not?

If so, please feel free to find yourself the top edge of a nice, high cliff and take a firm step forward.
