So do I, but I disagree about the "counterattack" proposed.

If you've spent a little time at CSS then the MO is rather obvious. Quite a few
people - most of the anonymous - try their best to discredit WinBoard as
bugridden and obsolete when the opportunity arises. The only argument being the
words of SMK. In that sense nothing of the current information is surprising.
The propaganda war started a long time ago. Personally I don't care what
protocol they choose to support. But the method applied is disgusting IMO.
