I would be honoured to be described as a "Stallman-like freedom 
extremist" but, apart from that, I totally agree with you. Ubuntu has 
decided to target Average Joe (and, by the way, that was a key point 
in Ploum's launching talk at Fosdem 2006 : to convert Windows users, 
not Linux users). So first it should... just work. Such critics would 
be irrelevant if, as you mentioned, other distros were not making a 
better job.

Our LUG "Mandriva guru" proudly announced the release of Mandriva 2007 
Spring, saying he was now "ready for our next LIP". So, Ubunteros, 
beware of competition!

But to end up up in a more positive way, I have to say that almost all 
people I know agree on Ubuntu leadership in one field : its fantastic 
users community, which is you, ladies and gentlemen.

Have a nice Sunday meeting the real or digital fawns ;-)
