I'm not complaining about people who spend time auditing security software and finding these bugs making their discoveries known - even if they are less than polite while doing so. (I myself am taking maximum advantage of the opportunity to poke fun at ridiculous or borderline fraudulent statements I've spotted during my literature review - it's one of the few redeeming features of writing a PhD thesis.) They are just as crucial as and even less appreciated than the developers. Certainly if I get round to writing this code it will need their attention.

What I don't like are people who do nothing except repeat something we already know ("This software doesn't do X. People want it to do X.") but louder and more rudely.
