Does the SC have an opinion? I'd like to put in a request that neither the gcc team nor the SC publicly flog RH for doing whatever they do, not because of any concern for RH, although I could justify it that way as well, but because the last flogging has made _my_ life harder than it should be and I don't think it serves anyone by doing this. If you want to flag a compiler vendor, go flog a non-gcc compiler vendor. :-( If the gcc team or the SC really wants to `fix' what what RH is going to do, the we need to directly support them, complete with whatever testing, bug fixing, timetables and releases that RH needs. If we don't want to do the work, then we don't get to flog. The `them', is us.
