Oh come on. I have wide open ears. If people make constructive suggestions we listen, and we change things. We'll not change everything, and not without very good reasons, but claiming we wouldn't listen is just insulting. I am pretty sure you you will find a bunch of people who will testify that we implemented a feature they requested on this ML, on bz, at a conference, on IRC or some other place for them. Or we fixed a bug for them, or we even changed behaviour of systemd in one way or another on their request. Making a good case, being polite and convincing gets you a long way. systemd is developed in the open. You can easily participate in various ways. However, if you come overly late to the party, are insulting and demanding, imply we are idiots OR SHOUT ALL THE TIME, then we might be less willing to consider your requests.
