You think so? Well, right here yeah, but that won't do any good. ;-)

(not that it will change the injustice originally done or change their process whatever it is) I think MSFT has lost contact with the community and who provides support. They don't seem to have a clue right now...

I think that MS's current thinking of "community" is the "whole" community ... .NET is a pretty darn big community. But, it should be broken down into more manageable chunks. IOW, if 90% of my community time is spent here on the UT, then that's the community that I should be evaluated against. Not every stinking single .NET forum on the Internet!!! But, I think that's what they're looking at. I know, this sounds like "sour grapes" perhaps. =0(
