FUD site?  You may not agree with what you read there, but *mostly* what is 
written is accurate and raises good points.  dep has always been a huge 
cheerleader for KDE from what I've seen, and now that he has his own news 
site, I see him trying to balance his coverage out by talking about gnome 
and problems with KDE, which there are.

Of all the "journalists" I've talked to and interviewed with since founding 
theKompany 3 years ago, dep is the only one that has been an "actual" 
journalist, apart from maybe the linuxgram folks.
