Well, sure. Now that you've qualified the term "substance" you make some 
good points.

My point is a) that it seems to be stable and fast, and produces output 
that its users enjoy; b) that it works great for a number of people. The 
age of the mailing list, the number of coders, the number of OSs, even 
the breadth of data sources it supports, is relevant for some folks, and 
not for others.

But yes, it would be nice to see MS 5.x rival Mapnik's output, so Mapnik 
gets to swallow their words. :)
