Yes, it's OT, that's why I wrote &quot;BTW&quot; :)

Oh yes, We are GNOME, is there really a world besides?
Most systems with this view of the world went down the drain :)

Besides this more philosophical/historical view there is a technical
background for my opinion, see my first point.

But as I wrote: a side note in this discussion here.
