[WT-support] Hostility on the list?

[Nick F5VIH/SV3SJ]

... after so many praise messages for win-test, we've almost forgotten what
exactly was the hostility Jim :-)
For sure anyone of us may and will find reasons not to be happy with
win-test. However, how many times encouragement to the developers have
generated the buy-out for them to go ahead with major win-test modifications
and rewrites? Even sacrificing contest participations to be on the task?
It's hard to say how many, but knowing them both, I am sure it is a lot.

We all share the same enthusiasm for the radio - the same with the win-test
developers and few others responding with concise support answers on this
list (almost around the clock) - let's stick to that and I am sure only
happier we will get.
