You're right, of course. I was thinking of something lighter for now.Let me use a scenario to explain : some newbie sticks a TV tuner in its PC, grabs the latest-and-greatest mediaportal binary, then comes to this forum saying "nothing works, help". Forum users could then say "well, with your kind of hardware/software, try first making release XXXX work. It is known to work".I believe this may help sort out true bugs from misconfiguration problems. There would be no overhead for the dev team which would focus on the current release only.That's a mere suggestion. You're the boss, here.
