Re: GNOME got at least 19 more projects than us

Well SoC is about developer proposals and not number of users (assuming one accept your assumption about KDE vs GNOME user statistics). If you compare the total number of GNOME proposals (174) and KDE proposals (213) and then the number of slots given GNOME (29) and slots given KDE (40) you could say that GNOME got the unfair treatment due to getting a lower percentage of proposals approved compared to KDE -> 16.6% vs 18.7%.

That said I think the comparison breaks down no matter how you look at it. A lot of proposals in both the GNOME and KDE list will benefit the other desktop almost equally as they funnel effort into shared technologies.
