No offense taken bro. :-)

Actually I believe I perfectly understood, what you where about. I tried
to express this with the first comment about exaggerating. [1]

My point was to emphasize, that Mark (and all the other Ximian hackers)
are more than only employees. They believe in Open Source and seem to
even be part of the Community in their spare time. At least this is how
I see them. ;)

Supporting a wide variety of Linux distros is very hard for any project.
And making profit in addition to giving away excellent products for free
is even harder. There have to be drawn some lines...

I really did not mean to accuse you of your statements. I apologize
myself, if you got me wrong.

[1] Understanding others can be hard. Expressing yourself is even
harder, if the discussion is about "political" topics and believes
rather than technical issues. Even more, if this is not your (my) native
language...
