No, that's "Sven having a whinge on a list that won't get him any results". > Are there any interesting forks of Gnome around? So, you're having a discussion on debian-gtk-gnome, which is not a general interface with upstream, and you're not getting any results... and then you decide you want to use a fork of GNOME? Perhaps, instead, it would make sense to talk about the changes with upstream, and have the problem fixed! Note that at no stage has upstream said "this is not a problem" -> it's thoroughly understood that it is (but you'd have to be prepared for the possibility that it may not be solved in exactly the way you'd prefer it). So please, instead of having an extended, pointless thread (with grinding and gnashing of teeth) on this list, take your concerns upstream where they can actually be addressed. - Jeff -- What's all that about? http://www.no-name-yet.com/ ... *bounce*bounce*bounce*
