It's absolutely right -even critical- to create alternatives to existing projects. It ensures there's no single point of failure at any level, and that we don't get stuck too long because of evolutionary dead-ends.

The _problem_ starts when bigger projects (desktops and distros) push an immature alternative, sometimes for shady reasons. Sometimes is because of someone's agenda, but often is just a combination of stupidity and stubborness (we are all humans after all).

So, I salute and thank the developers for the effort they are putting into this, but distros and desktops better stay clear from it, at least until they can demonstrate that it brings something valuable to the table _and_ can take over the functions of whatever is being replaced.
