I just saw watched this episode of the LAS for the first time last night and
I was really annoyed with Chris and Matt's analysis of the distro. I think
they kind of missed the point of what we are trying to do here.
I was especially annoyed by Matt's comment when he said "I tried to watch a
You Tube Video and Gnash Sucks." Ok -- Gnash is what it is, but saying that
is sucks is never going to fix the situation, its not going to draw more
developers to work on the project, its not going to make it work any better.
Also, Chris discussed how Trisquel doesn't really acknowledge the role of
Ubuntu in our success. How often does Canonical go around praising Debian for
all of their successes?
I think the LAS is cheesy, and I doubt the credentials of these "expert
analysts" on the show.
Compared to every other 100% free distribution I think that Trisquel is far
ahead in terms of visual appeal, functionality, and community. I think that
should have been the focus of the discussion, not how gnash sucks.
