I've been following this thread (somewhat loosely) as it's progressed, and I
really would like to point out something:

A LOT of "hard core netizens" seem to have this attitude IMHO.  Is form
REALLY that important?  We're not writing haiku here.   Slamming someone
because they posted to a list or a newsgroup "incorrectly" (in your opinion)
is not going to endear them to whatever open-source product they're trying
to get help for.   Microsloth makes enough money already, do we really need
to drive MORE people to them?
