begin  Navindra Umanee's  quote:
| In case there was any doubt as to the nature of the Ximian press:

which was exactly my point: none of the people you quoted are at all 
the people ximian is seeking as users. they are looking for 
enterprise desktop users. they are not looking for 
hackers'n'hobbyists. a lot of the complaints you posted are of the 
order of those who express preferences for emacs or TeX as opposed to 
a more conventional word processor dedicated to that task alone. 
they're meant for different audiences. i am certain that the ximians 
did not expect a mass exodus from kde or from gnome to ximian gnome. 
i am nearly certain that they did not *want* such an exodus.

one also cannot do a whole lot of software development on a palm 
pilot. that is not, however, cause to suppose that the palm pilot is, 
therefore, useless.
