Mark should have put the spotlight on asking for help in fixing the bugs.  
This is a large mailing list of ObjC users and developers and he could 
easily get help.

Instead he chose to put the spotlight on explaining to this same large
mailing list of ObjC zealots why he doesn't care if Objective-C works or 
not when he makes a release.

Surprised that this generated a flamewar ?  I'd have been surprised of the
opposite.
