Comment:

 You are not going to convince anybody to fix bugs with such a
 confrontational approach.
 And I am not sure you know what open source software is. The fact that the
 software is free may not be relevant, but none of us is working on this as
 a day job or getting paid for it. We are just a bunch of hobbyist working
 on ScummVM in our free time, and it is natural for us to work on the
 aspect of the program that interest us. And anybody is free to contribute
 and help fix bugs.

 Out of interest I also looked at the list of tickets that have been closed
 as fixed since the start of the year, and there are 246 of those. So
 pretending that we don't care and are not fixing bugs is baseless.

 Your attitude is only going to make some of the dedicated developers who
 have been trying to make ScummVM better over the years lose motivation and
 quit the project, and ScummVM may die because of the negativity thrown at
 us by people like you.

 Since this ticket does not have anything constructive I will close this.
 You are welcome to open tickets for specific bugs that you have seen and
 have not been reported yet, or add details to existing ones that might
 help to fix them. And you are of course welcome to fix some of them
 yourself.
