Of course they do, and you misunderstood my last post when you think I would
ever doubt that.

But still this doesn't mean that I can presume to complain about the V5 not
keeping my desired deadline, just because I developed a lot of publicly
available V4 stuff, wrote a book that helps people to learn TYPO3 and am
supporting people in the newsgroups for years now.

Of course I can express my concerns regarding performance issues, coding
style, paradigms and the like. Because usually I like a pragmatic approach
much more than theoretical buzzwords. But as long as I don't contribute
directly to the project, and without knowing their internal roadmap, I just
have to accept the way these guys are doing their job.

I hope this is clarified my point of view a bit
