If there are no users and no traffic on the mailing lists, how is he stealing people's time?

Less emotion would be nice. He started a project, it didn't take off, he hasn't formally called it
quits. What's the big deal? Why are you so bitter?

I am not bitter. I just think it is unwise for the DCC to have lame (dead) ducks like Userlinux in its ranks.
Would you vote for a party where you know that "leading" members are incapable and have not produced any result, but still claim things like:
"The UserLinux project provides businesses with freely available, high quality Linux operating systems accompanied by certifications, service, and support options designed to encourage productivity and security while reducing overall costs."

You sound pretty bitter. Don't be so sure it's dead yet. I might surprise you.

Including dead projects is bound to happen in the sort of informal, open community we have. It's
not a big deal.

And if Mr. Perens says he's still working on it, who are you to say otherwise?
