[Elecraft] Contributing (wasRe: FT8 Upgrade)

[Lynn W. Taylor, WB6UUT]

Running beta software, but not reporting results (good and bad) isn't 
making a major contribution.

Less-than-helpful testers is a major problem for developers, which is 
why some resort to software that reports by itself, and beta versions 
that quit running on a particular date.

Developers wouldn't have to do that if testers really understood testing.
