In my opinion it is no sin to be wrong about something. We gather facts and draw conclusions. Sometimes the facts are wrong, sometimes the inferences are wrong and sometimes the conclusions are wrong. In any case, Eduard Nemeth is a good and honest person and I expect that once the correct information comes to light he will understand better. I did not read the thread in question about Fruit verses Toga. Fruit and Toga are now somewhat independent efforts. Let's not denigrate the effort of either programmer. We shall continue to recieve value from both of them.
