Sorry, but please - do some thinking.

Maemo is a commercial OS developed in a semi-open fashion, the existence of PR1.2 was sort of known before PR1.1 was even out - "fixed, but not for the next update".

This means that you're seeing something *in development*.

In the real world, commercial products aren't just plonked down in a finished state, they go from nothing - to something - which is then tested until it's in a finished state which can be commercially released.

This isn't to say that the process couldn't be improved further - it could. But criticising the one part of the process that is working well (your knowing about this update *now*) is the wrong way to go.
