I trust them more than that. It's a good piece of software, it has a lot of promise, and its developers have worked hard on it. It deserves more than to be rendered down into gmc redux. I said the same thing about Mozilla I'll say about Nautilus here, which is that these projects require active, engaged user communities to make things happen. Not carping whiners who've staked their meager credibility in talkback pissing matches over the desktop wars or daily harassment of the nearest Windows fan they can lay hands on.
World domination is a community responsibility.
