No, he's a troll because he claims to think so, and posts such again and again
and AGAIN.  He's been answered by those who know more about the project than
he, again and again.  If he truely had any concern about Mozilla, he'd change
his way of presenting his arguments.  But no, he posts in a way engineered to
piss off as many people involved with Mozilla as possible, and makes no 
allowances for their side.

I did make some unequivocal statements, which weren't proper... I don't 
believe any of his statements to be true for Mozilla running on Solaris,
but I can admit that the situation may be different on other platforms.
(Though, I DO run Mozilla on Windows, and except for startup time, I do
feel it to be a better browser than IE.)  

I did state personal observations and opinions as fact, which wasn't proper.
But the difference is I'm not trying to irritate those who are actually 
working on Mozilla.  I can have issues with Mozilla without denigrating the
project itself or the people involved; I file bugs, I observe what is done
with them, and if the project changes direction in a way I don't like, I walk
away from it.

Its a slightly more mature way of handling it than ranting at anybody who will
listen and frequently many who won't.

PS: Please don't feed the trolls.  This includes me, if you really think that
is my goal.
