#2It would be interesting to see Shuttleworth clarify, or retract his statements if incorrect, but I won't hold my breath. I imagine he'll quietly ignore it rather than address it. Lennart is already a whipping-boy[1] of the open source community, so it's not like people won't jump to assume what Mark says is true, regardless of the actual veracity.
[1]: He developed PulseAudio. He gets a lot of flak for that, for various reasons, but I think most of it is that any new system will have a period of instability based on the technology, implementation, and use. It's used in all the major distros now, AFAIK.

Isn't that the original post, which Lennart is saying is incorrectly attributing quotes and criticisms to him? I'm seeing Lennart's post as close to 12 hours after Mark's.
