Obviously the alleged pointlessness of something that we are arguing about is relevant. Whether or not there are--you know--actual people using said OS is what this is really about. And apparently even Sun doesn't think so since they no longer invest the same level of resources in it that they once did.

FWIW, in relative terms the number of people working on the GNOME desktop at Sun compared to say, 5 years ago has probably increased, but I'm aware that this isn't necessarily the general community perception.

Maybe we just need to rescue Gman from his current marketing role and give him back a proper job :)

Cheeri,
