Those are all good ideas. But they don't help a first-time user who boots his system for the first time and is faced with a blank desktop. > Though I think we can probably do a nicer job on the web. Sure, there is no problem with having material on the web - although there are 'no network' scenarios to worry about. The problem is that people won't find it unless we give some hint that there _is_ information out there. I won't accept the classification of that as a 'nag screen', really. It is a valuable service to the user to inform him that he has just logged into a major new version of GNOME, and that there is a place to go and learn about it. _______________________________________________ gnome-doc-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-doc-list
