First, paralympics unfortunately won't have any influence on our 
resources. I hope that you have enough confidence in us to trust that if 
we don't look at something right when we are aware of it, it's not 
because of lack of interest. We try to manage our resources for the best 
for all our users, but unfortunately we are also quite short here.

Second, we don't ignore or disagree with what you said because of you, 
it's not personal, but sometimes you give your opinion on something
you have no idea about. Because most of us are reading a lot of lists, 
are doing a lot in the project, we just ignore what you said (i.e 
because it's not a real answer) or sometimes we may over react because 
we have lost some precious time reading one of your mail and it didn't 
bring any added value for us. We are not right, you are not wrong, we 
both (you and us) need to think before replying. Your reply will be 
read, but this time may be taken from others in the community who may be 
in more needs (and I hope that my English is enough to explain that it's 
not against you at all.)

The board has nothing to do here. The board is here to manage the 
foundation (administration, expenses, etc...) and eventually conflicts 
that may appear in the community. The request from Alex should be 
directed to the QA list because he his willing to bring some attention 
on a special area of the product, however this area belongs to the QA 
subproject, and may be he should be sent to the wiki for more 
information on how to fill a bug.

Kind regards
Sophie
