Why so little interaction with the community?

[Feathered_IV]

There have been any number of moments in the past where they have announced a new commitment to "constant updates" (oleg's words, not mine).
These usually result in great rejoicing by the community for a brief moment. However these announcements have usually been the harbinger of long, protratcted and obstinate silence form the devs. They don't seem to have the commitment to follow through on these sort of things. Perhaps they just don't care or do not have the experience to understand how important it is. I get the impresion that Luthier, much more than Oleg, does not particularly like the community or his product's customer base. Whenever he has referred to us, it has been with some disdain and a sense that we are an unpleasant nuisance to his circular development cycle.
