A live example just for fun : some days ago I have submitted a bug repor= t = for an open-source application. The bug is a variant of a division by ze= ro = : if zero is given as a data in an input field of the application, then = = the application enters an infinite loop, memor consumption increase at t= he = speed of light while usage of one whole core of the CPU is 100%. The reply I just get right a few seconds ago : =E2=80=9Cno body should p= rovide a = zero in that field, this is an edge case, users just have to be careful,= = so I do not see a reason to fix it=E2=80=9D (I submitted other bugs repo= rts for = the same application, and all get similar replies). I report this just to tease you ;) as I won't say all open-sources goes = = the same way (but this show open source does not guarantee anything). -- = Si les chats miaulent et font autant de vocalises bizarres, c=E2=80=99es= t pas pour = les chiens.
