Where are the blatently commie graphics? Without digging for old crufty
banner images from three years ago that aren't linked from anywhere obvious,
the site consistently shows only the fierce red Mozilla dinosaur -- not a
commie symbol. No red stars in the windows build, and if there are any left
in the Linux build they're on the way out, to be replaced by the Mozilla
head.
Joke about "Politburo" all you want, but all successful open source projects
have had a strong guiding hand somewhere to sort out the inevitable
disputes. Sometimes that's an individual (Larry Wall, Linus Torvalds),
sometimes a committee (Apache, Mozilla). Contributors are influential, but
the buck has to stop somewhere.
