I appreciate the time you're spending on parting Cinnamon, certainly.
But how does it change the fact that I've ported a few ports from it?
This is public software, right?  And I don't really understand why
do you find this offensive.  It's not that I was aware of your work and
tried to step on your toes or something.  I've simply made a port, and
I believe a good one.  I don't do quick'n'dirty "it compiles? ship it"
type of work.

leaf bits of Cinnamon without coordinating with you or understaffed
gnome@?
