Emacs. I believe none of the people present there ever used it.

As for the actual criticism, when you've shown that you understood WHY
the decisions were taken (documented in my blog), then you can make
constructive suggestions how to make it better. Until then, you are just
a joker who throws stones from afar.

For the record, Shai Berger also did not like some of the decisions. He
asked to be attend personally, got his wish, made his case, got focused
responses, and was satisfied that it couldn't have been done better.

It is possible that things could be done better, but uninformed
criticism like yours shows little more than ignorance, and does little
to get us there (assuming it's possible).
