I remember a few years back when they decided to delete a feature that many people relied on, and a few days into the resulting flamewar, someone from the Gnome team replied to me something to the effect of "I'm sick of all this bitching, and I'll tell you the same thing I've told the other ten thousand crybabies: *NOBODY* wants that feature!" I never understood how someone could acknowledge that tens of thousands of people were complaining, yet still claim in the same paragraph that nobody really wanted the feature. -- John Abreau / Executive Director, Boston Linux & Unix GnuPG KeyID: 0xD5C7B5D9 / Email: abreauj-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w at public.gmane.org GnuPG FP: 72 FB 39 4F 3C 3B D6 5B E0 C8 5A 6E F1 2C BE 99
