Ditto... Nothing we will do will limit the flexibility, hell it is linux. In fact, we should include panel entries files for our default layout as well as the gnome default to make it really easy for people to just reset to gnome defaults if they really want. Of course all of this is a little in the weeds :) Back on topic, to help define this target, would it be helpful to describe some personas and their use cases? --Ken _______________________________________________ Foresight-devel mailing list Foresight-devel@lists.rpath.org http://lists.rpath.org/mailman/listinfo/foresight-devel
