Prince Rogers Nelson...

While Paul, Frank, and the others feign that they as developers don't care
about the users to make their point, you should realize that in practice, it
really isn't true.  If you have ever tried to get help with one of the
applications that they develop (PostGIS, FWTools, MapServer, etc), you would
quickly see that it is they and the primary developers of the projects that
often respond quickly with great information, troubleshooting, and pretty
often will roll a new release for you.

In working with proprietary GIS software, I have had a hard time getting the
support people to even admit that a particular bug exists...

David.
