I would probably be most in the position to feel this way, but
I don't. I don't think this is the case at all.
I also don't think GNE is dead, or needs to be dead.
Keep in mind that RMS's long term vision here is bigger than
any single project or part of a project could encompass. In a
way, it is a lot like GNU/Linux or GNU/Hurd. Different parts
of the bigger picture get built at different rates. Eventually
someone will write a kernel to put the whole thing in practice.

I certainly don't think this is warranted. I mean, I don't have
the impression that anything wrong was done, other than some
miscommunication and confusion.
