A fairly reasonable argument can actually be made in that direction.
If you can't keep the tray tables clean of coffee stains, how can we
trust you to get the engine maintenance right? (-- Tom Peters)

Ooooooh! A dreadful quote!
Good engineers don't care about "tray tables", they care about engine
maintenance. They put the effort into what they care about, they don't
waste it on a manager's shallow perception of reality!

I can't believe this conversation has degraded to this point. How
ridiculous ...

That, itself, is the sort of attack you continue to decry.
| Quote: | Milliwatt in Asterisk is incorrect. Tilghman pointed out the
available workaround, which is to use Playtones.
Fixing the source is trivial! All we have to do is make Milliwatt use
Playtones internally. It will take a little bit more CPU resources,
because it is generating the tone on the fly instead of reading it
from memory, but who cares?
This change will take me about 10 minutes. I'll do it today. If you
want to make sure I don't forget, put it on bugs.digium.com to be safe.
Now, please stop the insanity.

There are many decaffeinated brands that are *just* as flavorful,
Russell. Really. 
But the fundamental point is still a valid one: it's amazing what
potential paying customers will choose to base their perceptions -- and
their choices about expenditure -- upon. You ignore your reputation at
your own peril. You're permitted not to fix it, even if your reason is
only "it's pretty far down our priority list".
You are *not* permitted to lose your temper and blow people off in
public. *You* *are* posting from a digium.com email address. You're
on duty.
Cheers,

grubby plane belonging to an airline with a first class safety record
(e.g. Indian Airlines - I think they have their new planes delivered
looking filthy) they get twitchy.

For what it's worth, Peters is (clearly) not an engineer. He's a
business guy.
