Yes, thanks to a RMSʼs wise decision not to mix development of GNU with Church
of Emacs — a decision you are now trying hard to revise and drive GNU into a
cave where all contributors have to live on “their own dog food”.
You presumably believe, that a relatively high number of Church of Emacs
followers among GNU developers is an achievement, that GNU should be proud of.
No, itʼs a shame that GNU is not able to attract a wide range of contributors
by non-ideological reasons — just like other free and ‘open source’ software
do. Much more of a shame than ‘unable to attract women’ of yours¹.

You do not, yet others do? ;-) Otherwise, why these ‘contracts’?

¹ By the way, it had been mentioned numerous times as a well-known fact, yet no
any references were cited, is there any?
