...that it *doesn't* include "a note warning that this initial Alpha build 'does not include anything of use to end users'"?

Or, isn't it true that the GPL-ed Qt 2.2 has "finally won the blessing of RMS"?

Just checking, you see... So far, it's looking as if he's just reporting the facts.

Next, isn't he allowed to think that KDE "seems to extend its lead over GNOME with each major release"?

And doesn't he have at least an arguable point that "the disadvantages of splitting brainpower and resources between two incompatible projects now outweigh the benefits of innovation, and losing the all-important network effect"?

You may call the release moniker "inspired", but AFAICS, it's rather petty, childish, silly, and ridiculous.

Enough to make me consider (Heh -- "*inspiring*" me to) skipping Gnome and sticking to KDE when next I try to install Linux on this box (which will hopefully be this weekend).

Think that's a desirable effect of what you call being "inspired"?

Still think it's all that funny?
