This is a pure lie and it's spreading FUD to say the least.  You guys
complain about how Canonical unfairly shut Sounder down, however, I
don't recall you being at any of the meetings to defend sounder while it
was going through the rounds to get shut down.  Including the last round
when Amedee (sp?) and NoOp were there to try and get it back.  I was at
all the meetings observing and nobody ever really showed up, so how can
you blame Canonical when you didn't care enough to even show up and
state your case?

What is Ubuntu and Canonical to assume when nobody shows up to defend
something that they supposedly care about so much? I'm sure they should
assume you guys could care less if it's shut down because you couldn't
take 10 - 20 minutes out of your busy life of complaining to go to a
meeting.

Start going to meetings and start speaking up, or shut it with the lies.
