It seems to me that the broader background is being overlooked in this assessment. Remember that RA generated 1 update in a year with one or two events. And you're attacking a guy who's taken over someone else's job to everyone's delight. Like i said - for me its quite unfair.
Don't forget that he does it as a hobby, and those who pay him do it voluntarily. He can have his job, family, private life. May not meet the deadline strictly, but produces updates regularly. And honestly, that's enough for me. I prefer to wait a week or two longer if it guarantees quality
I guess I look at it differently.
