I agree about the name-calling, but when it comes to “criticising a free software project”, there are obvious differences between criticism that is constructive, which should be welcome from anybody, and “criticism” that is basically vociferous complaints by non-contributing users that they're not getting their itches scratched for free, which developers should be free to disregard at will.

(If users can't scratch their own itches, the least they can do, instead of complaining, is learn how to write and submit meaningful and constructive bug reports. If nothing else, this would turn them into contributing users who are actually helping the project.)

The other thing they can do - if they are businesses - is to sponsor a developer to scratch their itches for them.

I've just been watching this scenario play out on a kernel mailing list - some users have no clue ... it's tricky, that one came over somewhat as a culture clash ...

Cheers,
Wol
