[D-community-offtopic] Whistle blowing

I had no reply from you in my mind Zenaan.

I was thinking about GTK and many private mails I will not make public.

"Hi Ralf, there are rumors", "Hi, please don't post it to a list" ...
There might be 10 or 15 mails about GTK from people who should know what
they are talking about.

IOW I had a mail from another one on Debian Users in mind and the reply
was semi-ok, but anyway, people "diss" nearly everything just because
there is something written on WikiLeaks. Should we start a
WikiSoftcoreLeaks for Linux issues? I don't think so, fortunately
somebody else mentioned a Windows like policy regarding to GNOME on
Debian and or FreeBSD mailing list. Many people are aware what's going
on with GTK/GNOME, this is nothing comparable to "many people think that
no human ever was on the moon", what happens to GNOME3 is something
everybody simply could test by using the vesa driver and then running
GNOME3 or by trying to remove something that is completely unneeded for
somebody. Another (not GTK/GNOME related) issue e.g. is, why did they
merge udev and systemd by upstream?

You're likely using not systemd with your Debian install, but you likely
have got much systemd stuff installed.

Etc. pp. blah blah ;D.

Regards,
Ralf
