What mandaboo is saying is that he thinks e-on lacks professionalism in the design of Vue 4 - not in its features. The reality of software development is that it is very difficult to successfully balance usability, features and budget. e-on does not have infinite resources. They have to generate a profit so they can survive as a company. They have to decide how much to invest (and how long) in each side of the development - that is, bug fixes, new features and enhancements of old features. In general, they have done a good job listening to users feedback but of course, they don't have the time to fix everything for every version. Hey... even Microsoft, with its nearly infinite resources, is not particularly known for their spotless, bug free, user friendly software (as a reference, Microsoft recently reported profits of $10 billion last year, more than what each of 48 out of 50 states in the US get in taxes in a year :) ).
