i probably should have balanced my criticism of gnuzilla - it was just a
clear example; but there ar two sides of that story - i did not want to rant too
long; because it is drifting off-topic

gnuzilla is such a lucid example because it is a web browser; and people expect
web browsers to be constantly revised - most of the other examples at which
people may point are not that sort of software - things like gnu-smalltalk and
gnustep are awesome just as they are - "yes" they are very old, and "no" they
do not need to change very much or often - most people criticizing GNU for
publishing stale software probably do not appreciate that good software does not
need to change constantly and is best when it stabilizes
