It isn't just Linus, it's Ted Tso and a number of other highly visible
kernel hackers.  Now hackers are not the mainline audience for Gnome's
design.  So I can understand some unhappiness there.  But they do tend to
have lots of followers and well they talk.  And I don't want them to talk in
a vacuum without some of us saying something.  Sometimes that works,
sometimes it exacerbates the situation since they get frustrated.

The sad thing is that there isn't much support other than myself in these
debates.  I'm not saying other Gnome people, but rather other Gnome users
are not chiming in and supporting it.

I have to agree with Luc.

It might be.

Anyways, I've spent plenty of time arguing. :-)  I don't know if it was
effective, but I feel satisfied.
