"You're shooting the messenger. I am nothing more than a symptom of a problem, and probably not even that."

No, you're not. You're not the messenger, you're not the symptom, you're the problem. Admit that, and you can help with things to progress, but as long as you're in denial, you're the problem. Just check how many whiny posts you've made over the last couple of years -- it's appalling. This, really, is a time for _you_, and I mean you, personally, to take stock of what you are about and what you are doing, and, maybe, figure out a way to be constructive in the future.

I probably will regret stepping into that, but... What exactly is the problem? Would somebody considering GNOME and KDE as excellent software emetics (just RTFS and go) qualify? Or considering both projects as proof that letting feng shui grifters^W^W^WUX theorists run wild is a Bloody Bad Idea(tm)?

PS: since you appear to be hell-bent on playing this ridiculous DSW... to forestall the questions as to what have I been doing the last decade - this and that, git log on the kernel repository and see for yourself.

It's more than two decades now, I believe. (Where the hell does the time go...)
