Just FWIW, you did get it across fine to me at least :)

That would certainly be easy enough to do.
Another thought is should we somehow deal with 9.3 different
specifically? IIRC I've heard this complaint once before - and that
was during 9.2 beta... During "normal non-beta months", it's more
apparent - the problem here is, if I understand you correctly, that
9.3 is labeled as unsupported (which it is, but it made the person
think that the functionality would be unsupported once 9.3 is
*released*, which it certainly won't be).
So maybe a cross with Peters suggestoin whereby we somehow split it
into 3 groups - one that has supported versions, one that has
unsupported, and one that has development (which now would be devel
and 9.3).
Might that be even better?
