In fact FOSS has no way to tell if the passionate advocates of

Yes; astroturfing is always hard to spot. BTW, I saw another term for
people who do that last night on TV: Cybershills. Has anybody else
run across this term or is it new.
Are people actually paranoid enough to think someone is paying people to
praise Gnome 3?
Well, no. But I am not expecting anybody who is being paid for his works
not to praise his works. Now consider that RH is paying a lot of the
Gnome folks, and draw your own conclusions.
Seriously? Really? Either you and I *really* need someone to clearly
translate our languages. Or? You need medical help.
I think Ralf makes an interesting point, actually. How many other
current distributions not based on Fedora actually use Gnome 3? I
haven't checked because I have no interest in using Gnome 3, but it
might be an interesting thing to look into before drawing any conclusions.
