It wasn't my question.

That's different.  No one said, "Hey, help me with Mandrake."  What we
had was something like, "this pisses me off, what are the alternatives
to Red Hat?"  I think Red Hat is good enough to withstand such
questions.  Lettem look around; odds are, they'll probably conclude
that they were doing fine right here.  If you love something, set it
free, and all that jive.  ;-)

Just as in any relationship, I fail to see how stifling dissent or
discussion of why we've made this choice is a bad thing.  Quite the
opposite.
