Open source is wonderful. Everything is so open, warts and all. Roshan Naik complains about the state of PHP:

Every once in a while somebody has to speak out about the state of the union and bear the brunt of some anger... with a hope that things will change for the better.

2 years back I started out asking a question being concerned by the frustration caused to many users (and vendors alike). Frustration due to many of the useful extensions forever being in experimental mode for the longest time. I asked ... " And exactly how long is it expected to continue to stay EXPERIMENTAL ?" The response was a predictable one, expressing indifference...

The posting continues on, sharing a response from Rasmus (to the effect of "don't complain unless you've tried to make it better") and Andi with his contribution of the comments being "quite useless and unproductive". Both make a very good point that I see too many times a day. People complain (mainly because they can) about something, but don't make an effort to define what "sucks" or doesn't work as it should...
