[dundee] GNOME Census - Who Writes GNOME & the start of a Flame War

[gordon dunlop]

Oh dear who would think that the GNOME Census (not the garden variety) would
erupt into a flame between senior Linux people, here's the report.

The guy who struck the match? It was Greg DeKoenigsberg, a former Fedora
Project Leader & Red Hat Community Architect from Toronto, now CTO of the
Institute for Knowledge Management in Education (ISKME) in California. He
thought that he could talk frankly on his blog now that he doesn't work for
Red Hat any more. Has the Californian sun got to him or was it the beer? How
stupid!!

This resulted in an explosion of different commentaries.

Even a response from Mark Shuttleworth himself.

You expect to see these kind of arguments on forums and mailing lists, but
in blogs of people that should know better. Anyway I prefer KDE :-)
