I wouldn't say that's quite true.  Perhaps you're just not patient.  You've
got to figure, this guy's got a LOT to do!   What do you expect?  An IMMEDIATE
answer???  Let's see, you want him to program all the new enhancements YOU
want, reply to yours and everyone elses comments (which I'm sure measure
in the hundreds, if not thousands).  Sometimes people make comments on the
same subject, so... he publishes/writes something about that, rather than
replying to each and every user who asks about it.  He's not superman - are
you?  He's done fine, as far as I'm concerned.
