Because this is the fourth or fifth version of Fedora he has claimed has 
dropped Mono, and this is the fourth or fifth time he made that up, and 
"you guys" continue to think he is an accurate news source.

Also, because Roy's idea of citing a source is to cite himself, and "you 
guys" have no problem with that. It's astonishing how many of Roy's 
claims turn out, if you follow his chain of self-cites back until you 
finally get something that is actually a source, turn out to have no 
backing at all.

His newest trick, though, is kind of clever. Tweet about something, wait 
for someone to see his tweet and blog about it, and then cite that. It's 
ultimately still a self-cite, but it *looks* like a cite to someone else.
Very dishonest--but at least in a clever way.
