Perhaps the hardest part to understand and appreciate is the extent to which the people who should be fighting for these users aren't.

I accept all failures to communicate with care accurately. Got a product roadmap for Fennec? Marketing plan? Strong show of support at a recent all-hands? I can only judge what I can see...and it's weak sauce.
