actually no i wasnt trying to drive traffic. if the article is correct
and gnome's players are in trouble i suggested they join
up with the KDE team. if the article is inaccurate then i guess
i did drive up the traffic inadvertently. i do have opinion and i
am not wishing gnome people any bad will . that is why
i was asking around to get some verification about the article.
