Let me add that the straw that broke the camels back was not my frustration with how Firefox itself ran, but Mozilla's appearance of a trying to radically limit customer input! As a software developer I know things can go wrong, but you always insure that the lines of communication are open. The attempt to limit communicate when things are not going well is tantamount to committing product suicide!

According to a message of a Mozilla member they are awashed with feedback, so it may be a way to try to force people to distill their message instead of sending huge and redundant WOTs. Remember Pascal's "I would have written a shorter letter, but I did not have the time."

If you feel the need to send something larger, there is still the mailing lists, newsgroups, IRC and of course, just posting it elsewhere and sending a link.

The accepted message length is less than the limit for Twitter. Small is good. Microscopic, not so much. I figured I would just let my message find its own way back to Mozilla from here.
