I was kinda hoping to just let that die a quiet death, but since this
thread has been thoroughly revived - I would've worded it differently if
I'd thought about it at all, and I'm sorry for that, it was a silly way
to put things. That thread was getting ridiculous and I was badly
stressed out from Beta work. Sorry to anyone who was offended by what I
wrote for any reason. I was really just trying to draw a humorous
comparison between fedora-devel circa 2003 and fedora-devel now (it
really was uncanny how similar the two threads were), but it got a bit
negative. Sorry about that.
