What we have here is a bunch of people who are campaining against a man who, for the last decade or so, has devoted his life to fighting for "lost" causes. Now that his earliest visions see some fruit, people decry his latest Jihad simply because "he can't win"!!! If he gave things up whenever they looked impossible, I wouldn't have Emacs, or gcc, or a GPL.
Thank you RMS, please don't ever quit. (Espescially when you're not going to win.)
