  Give them a break (was:Hey, like, is anyone there? )

(...) Well, I don't really think the point is that we're dissappointed in their responsiveness. Actually, as I said before, it's been more than I'd hoped for. The problem is simply that they said they'd be more active than they have been, and (...) (24 years ago, 2-Feb-01, to lugnet.lego.direct)

(...) I think this post by Tomas Clark: (URL) that and I think you're going to see more effort to set the right expectations with us so we don't expect more than can be delivered.
