When users rant against volunteers, that won't work whatever the
community...

He is not blamed for bringing his pet bug, but for not being proactive
on it and for waiting that a volunteer take care of it without helping
in any way to have it solved.
When you use LibreOffice in a corporate environment, you have to take
care of the investment made by your company and take care also to
protect the software used there. Being in a waiting attitude without
helping things to happen put you at the risk to lose your investment or
lose your software by not sustaining the ecosystem.

Kind regards
