LimeWire has a long history of altruistic behavior that you seem to disregard. We have worked long and hard to improve the Gnutella network and we continue to do so. We have only the best interests of Gnutella and our users in mind.
As a developer of a Gnutella client yourself, perhaps you should show some restraint in your assumptions and accusations about other developers. Better yet, release your client and take on the challenges and risks of client development directly.

Thanks

Somehow you weren't so negative about feedback when there were bugs to squash. We can't say anything because we don't write our own client ? Then I'm sure you've never been to a movie and said it was boring, since you aren't yourself in the movie bussiness. Or watched a sitcom and said it wasn't funny, since you don't work in television. Or complained about AOL or MS since you haven't written a single line of code for any of those companies. Or VOTED, since you're not in politics.

The 'do it yourself before you critisize' is the most retarded argument in the history of rhetorics. It doesn't work that way, 'Limewire developper'.
