You don't think competition has it's advantages? A bigger project doesn't necessarily equal better results. There are significant differences between (for example) KDE and GNOME that make it useful to have a choice. They are tackling the same problem but in different ways. It is very important people can experiment and try different things. Anything else would be to stifle innovation and progress. Regards, Thomas -- OpenedHand Ltd.
