"(Actually, I do spot-check KDE articles once in a while, just to see if there are GNOME trolls as annoying as the KDE trolls, and the answer seems to be, generally, no. If there were, I would browbeat them just as firmly as I'm browbeating this particular annoying troll, even though I could be considered to be more-or-less on their side.)"

Nevertheless it escaped your attention, that a GNOME troll postet 31 minutes
earlier on this page.

So after telling you this, I'm looking forward to see the actions following your words.

Questions for deployments of GNOME

I don't object to GNOME users posting on GNOME articles nor KDE users posting on KDE articles. What I object to is GNOME users trolling KDE articles and vice versa. If you're looking for someone to act as a self-appointed policeman for all articles, you're looking in the wrong place.

Just to clarify things a bit: I don't actually use GNOME or KDE myself (though I have helped out with small-scale GNOME deployments, which is why I was checking out this article). I'm not a GNOME advocate; I simply dislike it less than I dislike KDE. I actually support both projects, but hope I'm never forced to use either one. But if forced, I would probably choose GNOME, as I think it's _slightly_ less maldesigned.

So why were _you_ checking out this article?
