Not all of us have the time or desire to scan through 100 messages a day.

Neither do I. I use a filter for that or I read the subject and
determine wether it is interesting or not.

Yeah, but they don't have to pay for gas and insurance. It's all a
question of economics. People pay (one way or another) what they're
willing to accomplish a goal. How much effort one is willing to expend
in getting something fixed is relative to the perceived value of having
it fixed.

So you do not realy want the speed fixed?

Maybe not, but it's harder than I think it needs to be. I don't need
another hobby.

Could it be easier? Probably. Is it hard? No.

And as Rajko pointed out, they know. I'm sure Chris and I aren't the
only ones that noticed updates are much slower than they used to be. So
my joining in the chorus would really only amount to one more person
something is suboptimal w/o offering a specific solution.

The larger the chorous, the higher the priority.

Maybe that's valuable to them or maybe it's not. I know from reading
here though that people have been complaining about it for the last
several releases. I think it's a pretty safe bet that somewhere along
the line they caught wind of it.

Yeah.

You mentioned that it took you up to two years to get some things in
openSUSE. I'm not interested in that level of involvement. Just
because I'm not doesn't mean I have to give up my right to express my
opinion.

What involvement? The involvement on my side was not more then what you
did in your bugreport. I think I have put more efford in this one
posting then in the item to get a red root in CLI.
