At the risk of a No True Scotsman Fallacy, No linux user uses Redhat for more than 2 years before hating everything about life, or moving on to something better (or getting paid to support the monstrosity). The company seems to thrive on PT Barnum's philosophy of a sucker being born every minute.

Poettering and Sievers are just freedesktop.org adding another layer of feces on the pile. The fact that people switch distributions to avoid his applications (NetworkManager, PulseAudio, Avahi, systemd), and the fact that someone hacked XBill to include him because he's a worse villain than Bill Gates, should put him on a level that even Ullrich Drepper couldn't touch, and everyone hated that guy.

Redhat has been a useless organization since they chose to promote Havoc Pennington over Carsten Haitzler (longer than any of you have known they exist). Blaming them does nothing to stop their slow lurch over the linux landscape. Boycotting them might, but there are too many RHCE's out there. Best to focus on FDO and Poettering/Sievers.

On that note, Freedesktop was founded by Pennington...
