Why the hostility? Because Linspire turned into a Linux foe shortly after it had received payments from Microsoft.

It was NOT Linspire's "Chairman" who resigned, but their CEO. Linspire's Chairman has always been Michael Robertson, and he is still Linspire's Chairman. It was their CEO, Kevin Carmony, who resigned and moved on to other non-Linux related ventures. Michael Robertson has several ventures, and has for years, not just Linspire. It's not unusual for a Chairman to be involved in multiple companies.

John,
Yes, I know this and I thought the text made it clear. Carmony and others appear to have left, but it also looks like the chairman puts his eyes on other projects (unless it's a case of handling many projects, as always).
The problem isn't Wayland per se but the false promises and efforts to force everybody to move to it whilst insulting or demonising everyone who won't play along
If people can no longer acquire Computer Science education and real Computer Science experience, they will not know how to control their own digital destiny or emancipate the very same universities that now control the syllabus and instead of teaching Computer Science encourage the outsourcing of systems
