Actually, I'm not.
For example, take these posts:
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=5095419
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=5095668
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=5142670
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=5143149
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=5148074
Or look at the comments on mozillazine's entry relating to this mailing
list, or the comments on posts you make to other e-zines.
It is pretty widely recognised that XUL is not a generic term. Your
flagrant disregard of this is causing confusion and is diluting the XUL
name. That you now threaten to censor me without even responding to my
arguments [1] says volumes about the strength of your case.
