I'm rather stunned by this entry. I don't believe Jeff deserves this  
treatment, nor do I think it's a healthy thing to encourage (a quick  
browse through various other GNOME contributors shows that this seems  
to be an isolated case, fortunately). It's all very well to have  
personal issues with people [1], but this takes it a step too far. We  
as a community should be celebrating each member's achievements  
(particularly those who have been continuously supportive of the  
project) and not harming the chances of their employment from  
prospective employers. I've removed this section from the wikipedia  
entry.

this a little too much
