I have "delicate" feelings about both my emacsen. I think there are plenty of
people in the same boat. It's in my (and our) interest to see both efforts
continue and thrive.
If something was said in e.e.xemacs that I think could hurt the feelings of
XEmacs developers, I'd say something as well.
If you had pointed out some specific short comings of XEmacs (there are some),
I wouldn't have minded. But to make a general statement like:

IMHO is wholly not appropriate.
