Fwd: [Evangelism] Good way to scare new users off

Hello All,

   Jan Ulrich just sent the email below to the Evangelism list.

   I saw the ticket and as I don't have a Snow Leopard machine nearby
(mine is back at the office, I'm still in EuroPython), I'd like ask if
any of you could replicate the issue.

Best,
ea

Hi,

are we counting the downloads of UnifiedInstaller packages from plone.org?

If the answer is yes, we now have the number of new users scared off.
https://dev.plone.org/ticket/13025

I am sorry for this rant, but releasing a UnifiedInstaller which fails
to install on Mac OS X is a good way to scare new users off.

Is it possible to have a checklist entry (UnifiedInstaller tested by
at least three users on each platform) before releasing?

We advertise Plone to be easy to install and easy to try out. We can
stop doing this if Plone does not install at all.

juh
