Plenty of work ahead

I've had the feeling with way too many projects that they're more willing to make cute new
features rather than actually fixing the bugs that are giving me trouble. File-and-forget bug
handling or making unreasonable demands on me just accentuate that feeling. Demanding that I
exchange a mostly-working program for a program that may not even compile or work remotely
correctly is absurd for anyone who actually has to use the program in question on the system
in question.

I see the reasoning behind it, but OSS already has a preception, often true, of not worrying
about the hard unfun stuff that users need. Stating that you're going to ignore bug reports
unless they follow a development version just stress that feeling.
