The sad thing...

The really sad thing is that had Miguel and his group invested as much time and effort into python or Java, just imagine how amazingly well those languages would be for developing gnome? They are good even now. Especially with regard to IDE development. And for what? Something that is roughly as good as Java and Python? Total waste of effort, massive missed opportunity to advance gnome development, and created major divisions within the gnome community. Sad.
