However the thread itself ran about 95% disagreeing with RMS (you could feel the incredulity coming through the screen), 5% agreeing, and RMS's request was similarly ignored. That's... not the way he acts when making requests to projects in which the GNU Project holds the copyright.

Maybe 95% of the volume, but that was mostly just two *very* loud people :-)

His request was that http://planet.gnome.org not be used to promote proprietary software. I didn't follow the whole issue but no announcements about proprietary software jumped out at me when I checked just now.

That's definitely true, as planet.gnome.org never contained announcements/promotions of proprietary software anyway. His request was that it never mention proprietary software at all. As this amounted to an attempt to control what hundreds (?) of people write on their blogs it met with the sort of success you might expect.
