It was an idea to steal the name of a project, explicitly and in the words of 
the creator of emacs expressway for the purpose of gaining popularity for your 
own version. You can’t bring up an idea — an idea to steal and trick — in 
public and then get mad when someone criticizes the idea. Well, I suppose you 
can actually, but I find it baffling to do so and then say people are mean for 
criticizing it.

Did anyone here consider the feelings of bbatsov or Clojure users when 
proposing to trick us into installing a gnu package instead of the original? 
Given the appalling orbat least _aggressive_ nature of what was proposed, 
you’re being a bit thin skinned. 

All that said, I am very grateful for emacs, and among the ways I have tried to 
show this is by contributing patches (well, one) and money to fsf. 🙏 thank you 
all for actions other than ones I wrote about
