No matter how each one of us thinks about Userlinux' GUI-problem, it will 
inevitably be raised. 

- as long as people will join this mailing list, 
- as long as enterprise users / developers prefer to use quality software over 
gratis software.
- as long as enterprise developers prefer to use C++ over C (I would consider 
the high usage of C among linux geeks to be rather non-representative).
- as long as there is freedom of speech on this list.

So as long as UserLinux will not resolve its home-brewn problem in a more open 
way it will obviously be here to stay.
