(1) Shit happens, including regressions. Yeah, it sucks. Yeah, it should have been caught. Nonetheless, shit happens.
(2) It's none of your business who was responsible. Are you some kind of stalker?
(3) The Mozilla team can handle their own internal affairs just fine, I imagine.
(4) You can always not use Mozilla products.
(5) I'm pretty sure I've been trolled, but what the hell, I haven't responded to a troll for a while. Then again, I haven't trolled for a while, either:
(6) Does having Snyder mean we'll see a need for Symantec, McAfee, etc. products for Mozilla just to keep the malware away? That's what we need for Microsoft products...
