Fair enough, let me be clearer: my stated views do not necessarily represent
the views of the GNOME Foundation or the GNOME community. GNOME comprises a
variety of viewpoints, of which mine is one; there are plenty of others.
This is one of its strengths.

I have a bit of a concern, however, that on the strength of this statement,
one might find oneself confronted with the suggestion that one is ³damaging
GNOME² somehow by simply expressing a point of view: in fact, such a
suggestion has been made in this thread at one point. Again, this‹to
me‹seems to demand a sort of self-censorship. Who¹s to make the judgment of
what constitutes a ³good job representing GNOME²?

Am I doing a ³good job representing GNOME²? (This is intended as a
completely rhetorical question, lest anyone misunderstand me here; I am not
requesting a ³performance review², and I¹ll look askance at anyone who tries
to deliver one on this list.) Some may feel so, but I¹d bet any amount of
money that you¹d get some distinct disagreement to that suggestion if you
asked around.

Not that this bothers me, especially.
