Well, given that LotFP is the only OSR game so far that has managed to develop a really unique style on its own, I think, when he speaks, people should listen more than they do.
He might not necessarily put out the BEST stuff, gamewise, put he gets his stuff DONE, never misses an announced publication date, and delivers stuff that is well edited and well illustrated.
I could care less that we had a coffee with him two years ago, but I quite simply respect his work.
In that respect, though, I think this whole OSR thing is detrimental to the hobby; if Raggi would make a real step ahead,
and publish his stuff as a fully separate game, he'd be way better off, as would be many others.
