Irrelevant? Elitist?

I'm not sure why some people seem bent on making us feel guilty for doing stuff our way.

Debian is like a politician that doesn't take contributions to fund his campaigns. It doesn't need to answer to anyone. The guys running the show do what they want. And they will tend to scratch their own itches, which also happened to be shared by a substantial group of people.



And there is nothing elitist about that. Its rather ungrateful to tell volunteers what they should be doing, or to tell them they are irrelevant because you don't like their work. The review itself seemed fine (can't pull up debianplanet to look over it again), but some of the posts here have started crossing the line.
