typically, rookie open source developers like the ones now boasting how they “act in the interest of users” over at postnuke have just not been around long enough. user interaction is overrated, as whiprush points out.

I think a lot of OSS developers are probably sick of backseat drivers trying to dictate features and direction of something they’re doing for free anyway. The more OSS project mailing lists and forums I read, the more I am glad that developers choose to ignore more and more user requests.

here is my prediction: postnuke will switch to a less open development model within 6 months (just look at cvs commit logs, there is nothing happening already) or the ones carrying the torch will be burnt out.
