Then, you do not read LWN comments, OS news or BSD mailing lists.  You
probably do well for your sanity ;-).

But I do not think they are crazy, trolls or idiots, just uninformed,
misinformed, disfranchised or unwilling to understand.

The fact is that it is (perceived as) more difficult to contribute to
GCC than LLVM/Clang for the reasons we all know already. And the
LLVM/Clang project has done an excellent job at presenting itself as
an alternative to GCC for those "neglected" platforms. I am not saying
this in a negative tone. I honestly think GCC could learn a lot about
marketing and usability details from LLVM.

Cheers,

Manuel.
