Not to mention that you force code that's no-where NEAR complete down the
pipes to people who expect a release to have pretty proven code.
I will not "wait" for developers to finish, that's what the dev-cycle of
this release was for. They should have offered this replacement as
experimental and

It is clear that you have not read the article. Everyone has rights to
rants, if that is what you want to call it,
It's obvious by the size of this thread that you've upset far more people
