Hi Mark,

This kind of rant is really unhelpful.  You’re shouting at someone who
*is* doing the work of keeping things running.  And yes, when you do
that work, sometimes you have to choose between two suboptimal solutions
while waiting for a proper fix.

Generalizations about “this community” obviously make no sense.  You are
a part of “this community” so it cares just as much as you do.

Please let’s work in a friendly manner towards finding solutions to the
problems.

Thank you,
Ludo’.
