That wasn't the point.  The point was that Mr Knight asked a question on
this list but did not wait for the answer before posting false information
on Slashdot.  Either that or he did read the answer but chose to lie

*Valid* criticism is good for a project since addressing it will invariably
make it stronger.  Criticism based on half-truths and lies can only destroy.
Lord knows there are enough valid criticisms against both GNOME and KDE
for one to have to make stuff up...
