I guess it would depend on whether people in the picture worked on the
new single window mode of GIMP. If so, good on them! If not, shame
on the editors for creating that impression.
I'm assuming we're talking about the Ubuntu group shots.
I don't think there is a conspiracy. Probably more like this:
Ryan Paul (segphault) wrote the review. He also works on Gwibber.
Gwibber is hosted in launchpad. He likely been to a number of UDSs.
This photo is probably from one of those. Gwibber seems to be a key
feature of the upcoming Lucid release. He's probably also a big
Ubuntu fan - like most geeks.
We should try not to be haters because Ubuntu is doing so well. They
are really focusing as a project - that is commendable. And something
that so far Fedora has failed to do - actually *refused* to do.
We should also probably consider debranding Fedora hosted so it isn't
as distasteful to people looking for a sourceforge alternative.
This is all well within reach folks. Just have to make the right choices. :)
