Do I even dignify this with a response?  Sure, why not?

WTF, Ken?  Seriously?

You know damned well that I work for many clients who own one (or many)
copies and versions of filePro.

Whether the clients reported the bugs or not is on them, unless they ask
me to do so.  I'm always happy to do so if it's asked of me, but it's not
my job to go around cleaning up fP Tech's messes unless someone asks me to
report he bugs, or fP Tech pays me to do so.  So no, I haven't -personally-
supported tickets, even about bugs I know exist in 5.0.14.  That doesn't
mean they don't exist.

As I have made quite apparent, many people are averse to upgrading past
5.0.14 -anyway-, so reporting the bugs is pointless for those people to do,
and has been for years.  It's not just pointless for me; it's pointless for
them unless they want to play ball under the new model.  Many don't.
Talking about 5.0.15 is akin to talking about 5.6, since it includes the
license manager; 5.0.15 may as well not exist for those people, so it's
never been an acceptable answer for them.

Your response is disingenuous, at best.
