corporate-managed collaborations... funny.
I also am in support of keeping
sources.redhat.com/sourceware.cygnus.com/whatever free of vauge marketing
assertions.
Furthermore, I think a web page with a bit of humor, especially for
otherwise serious topics like compilers and libraries, is a fine idea. (I know reasonable
people can and do differ about this subject, but allowing optional humor
is a right that should be preseved.)
