I don't really care one way or the other, Planet Ubuntu has an ever
increasing number of voices. It is becoming hard to filter out the noise as
it is. I am a bit concerned that Ben isn't allowed to speak his mind any
more and I would like to see the exact conditions.

I would rather have OMG be a place where we can honestly criticize Ubuntu
than have a few more readers, I believe we hold up our own end fine as it is
in terms of the size of our readership.
