I'm not sure that you could be more shrill if you tried, maybe taking a break and a deep breath would be a good idea.

> is it because we didn't just said "okay, we'll re-release GNOME 2 forever, sorry about the detour"? would that satisfy you?

I think the very existence of MATE and Cinnamon shows that there are a core contingent of users who wanted the GNOME 2 experience and could have been your best Evangelists and additional manpower if they had felt some sort of shared ownership of the GNOME vision and hadn't been driven away. You can't deny the existence of MATE and Cinnamon, or what that means for GNOME as an ecosystem, now bifurcated and splintered unnecessarily.
