KDevelop is about community focus, not customer focus.  Read Eric S. Raymond's Cathedral 
and Bazaar for some more insight into the idea.  The people who develop KDE are a subset of 
the entire user base.  We're not targeting ourselves to make a product that has ultimate 
customer focus, we're targeting a product that helps us get our jobs done and that we enjoy 
spending time on.  The KDevelop developers together feel like a family; an ecclectic mix of 
people from various countries all collaborating on a project because we enjoy it.  This is in 
stark contrast from a work environment where you do whatever you can to please the 
customer - a notion that you seem to be stuck on. 
 
Actions speak louder than words - take heed to those you've already said.  When people don't 
like the way things are done they either take over, or start something new.  I suggest the 
latter. 
 
My replies to your comments are done and I encourage everyone else to stop as well.  Your 
bug reports are still welcome, but if the drivel and negativity continues I'll request to revoke 
your bugzilla account.
