Why? This is ridiculous. We don't control Gnomesword's website. The personal beliefs and intended uses of its author(s) are completely irrelevant. It's a useful tool to include in the distribution, with a wide range of uses; include it. Lots of people who write software that we include publically espouse beliefs that are controversial for one reason or another, whether about free software or religion or anything else. It doesn't matter. -- adamw
