<p>Are certain features in the development roadmap are important to you or your

<section id="provide-feedback">
<h2>Provide Feedback<a class="headerlink" href="#provide-feedback" title="Link to this heading"></a></h2>
<p>Feedback on the usage, functioning and potential dysfunctioning of any and
all components of the system is very valuable to the continued development and
improvement of Reticulum. But…</p>
<div class="admonition warning">
<p class="admonition-title">Warning</p>
<p><strong>Think before you speak</strong>. As time has shown, over 80% of the “feedback”,
“bug reports” and “advice” the Reticulum project has received has been
irrelevant noise, stemming from erroneous assumptions, misunderstanding the
foundational functionality or philosophy behind the system, or simply
the malinformed (but overly opinionated) personal preferences of individual
drive-by architects. This wastes the time of everyone involved.</p>
<p>The Reticulum project is not a public teahouse for serving the attention
needs of random bypassers, but a highly complex system engineered and
refined over more than a decade, designed to provide communication and
connectivity guarantees in highly adversarial environments.</p>
<p>If you want to voice your opinion, it better be well-informed, and we
expect you to have a comprehensive and solid foundation for your points
of view. Everything else will be ignored.</p>
</div>
<p>Absolutely no automated analytics, telemetry, error
reporting or statistics is collected and reported by Reticulum under any
circumstances, so we rely on old-fashioned human feedback.</p>
