Editorial Misinterpreted. I think that is about the best word around to describe the reactions to my previous article. Whether it has been misinterpreted due to people only reading what they want to read, due to an unclear choice of words on my behalf, or other factors, I am going to try it again. I will try to explain my position, again. Now, more stable, the code has been rewritten from scratch!

Re: Who needs SCO; Bill's got better help.

To think that we've got a bunch of folks who are internal to the linux community running around yelling "RTFM" and "the problem is that people don't want to learn" and "linux being hard-to-use is pure FUD" and " 'Usability' is BS. Don't dumb down linux", and all the while we're concerned about some silly external threat like SCO and it's impact on people adopting linux.

There are actually people in the Linux 'community' (and I use the word loosely) who don't want Linux to grow because they're afraid their exclusive tree-house club will become tainted by popularity.
