in my mind, this is about choice. we all want Solaris/OpenSolaris to be the Desktop of choice (yes, some may say that i am being unrealistic here, but i have my reasons for really believing this is possible). i remember the times when having a Sun Workstation on your desk was Da Bomb. this is *not* about "My Desktop Is Better Than Your Desktop". if it's too difficult to support both GNOME and KDE within Sun, why can't the Desktop Project be split ? GNOME/JDS within Sun and KDE outside Sun. Having BOTH means giving users (actual and potential) a choice. --Stefan -- Stefan Teleman [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list [email protected]
