Lets not create a flame war, but...

This discussion is something that always happen in projects like this,
and I know Lars has had the same thing happen in his internet
projects. People troll because they need something, and the project
head honchos aren't supplying that.

I don't know if that gives some perspective, I think it should.

It usually boils down to what you tried to solve with the dev server,
there usually isn't anyway for newcommers to test their code. So while
you see lots of people using the planet.osm dumps you don't see many
people changing your ruby code, I would say that's because people can
actually use and test the planet.osm by them selves.
