Flock released their “Developer Preview” with caveats and warnings written in a font size larger than the H1 of anyone else and lots of people seem to have taken them to task because it’s Not Ready for Primetime.

This doesn’t make any sense to me, it’s clearly labeled “Developer Preview”. It doesn’t say “Public Relations Guy Preview” or “Slap Jiminy – Put this on your Parents PC Preview”, no it’s for DEVELOPERS to test with their sites, plugins, addons and gimcracks to see if they can break it. The thought being that taking these actions today will make it a better release and something cool for everybody in a couple months.

All the abuse seems like complaining that you can’t really drive the wacky concept cars at the auto show or kicking a puppy that’s not yet ready to run in the Iditarod.
