      The totally wonderful (some would even say "rad", but not me!) <a
      href="http://www.ubuntulinux.org">Ubuntu Linux</a> became the first
      distribution I know of to ship contact-lookup-applet this week, when
      <cite>WartyWarthog</cite> was released in preview form.  This did tickle
      my funny bone, as Ximian/Novell paid for its development via a Bounty.
      I've been informed [updated, thanks Luis] it will be in Novell Linux
      Desktop (due "soon") and SuSe 9.2, and there are rumours it will be in FC3
      too.

      What more proof do you need that RPM-based distributions are inferior?
