I was going to respond with some actual content, but apathy overwhelmed me within the first sentence or so and I decided it wasn't worth it. Good luck with your vendetta, but can I suggest a blog along the lines of boycottnovell, instead of cluttering up LWN comments when anyone happens to mention Mark or Ubuntu (or in fact any other distribution)?

Well, I think there is something wrong with Jef and he should seek help or
find some other outlet. A markshuttleworth-thetruthmovement.com site might
be just the thing he should go for. Be a crusader like Roy, Lefty and RMS.
He is posting literally thousands of comments on Ubuntu blogs, Ubuntu sites
and LWN about Canonical and especially about Mark.
I think he means well and in his wicked way is trying to protect RH, FOSS
and Fedora, but I think he is turning people away from Fedora, RH and FOss.
Most of the stuff he writes isn't that insightful, everybody with half a
brain that reads a few of his comments can infer the content of the next
few hundred comments easily.

I guess most readers by now are just skipping his posts. I advise you do
the same.

But what do I know, maybe these crusaders that seem just weird serve a
purpose in the bigger FOSS community. But I sure hope the spamming would
stop.

He, we all know the "with friends like these, you don't need enemies"
saying ;-)
