Argh.   Please bear in mind that this list is open to everybody, and
the person who flamed you probably didn't do so in an official
capacity.   I am a bit of a flamer myself, but I do know that the
install process is a pain, so I don't think I have flamed anybody for
having trouble with it.   If I did flame you, I'm sorry.

Part of the problem here is that the install process really is a pain,
and no amount of clever documentation is going to fix that.  Until
somebody (maybe me) gets their butt in gear and comes up with
something a bit easier, there are going to be a lot of people having
trouble with it.  Sigh.
