    If your brother or sister starts a new venture, you wouldn't use the local
    newspaper to say that their venture is immature and folks should check back
    in a few years. That makes sense and it's true, but if you did, your brother
    or sister would be terribly hurt and angry. (I use "you" in the general sense
    and not in the directly personal sense.)

    I'm working hard to create a widget that runs on Linux. Others are doing the
    same. We don't need Mr RH CEO working with Bill and Darryl to tarnish the
    reputation of good software because it changes their world. MBA-boy screwed
    up with his public passive-aggressive comments. What next from RH - a public
    admission that Linux really does infringe on SCO property rights? Hell has no
    wrath like a CEO scorned.
