I would prefer GNOME to officially withdraw from GNU rather than be
repeatedly subject to the thought police. We happily represent a range
of opinions and can't possibly be forced to forever avoid any mention of
something that you don't agree with and/or be forced to promote exactly
what you think is important this week in exactly the words that you
dictate to us. No, I don't want to argue with you about it.
