Quote: The Burden of Debugging

"The way I see it, the burden of debugging and fixing bugs is mainly on the developers of the code that breaks. You can't blame users for using the code, triggering bugs and then reporting the breakage. Users who report bugs are doing us all a great service regardless of their ability or willingness to do more work than just the initial report."

— Jesper Juhl, in an April 10th, 2008 message [1] on the Linux Kernel mailing list.
