Hey GNOMEers, I've got some suggested changes to the applications we install by default:
Proposed additions: bijiben, deja-dup
Bijiben ("Notes"): The new GNOME notes app. Alternatively we could add
Gnote, which is almost the same as Tomboy. Both can import Tomboy
notes.
DejaDup: See Atri's email [1]. This app is great. Ubuntu patches it
into GNOME Control Center (we don't need to do that).
Proposed to drop: alacarte, gbrainy, tomboy
alacarte - GNOME 2 menu editor, no longer makes sense since GNOME has no
menus. Or separators. Or categories (in GNOME 3.8). It doesn't even
seem to be capable of hiding/showing apps anymore (the only feature that
worked in 12.2).
gbrainy - Nothing functionally wrong here, but I'd like to move to
mostly GNOME 3 apps by default, and gbrainy is clearly not planning to
do so.
tomboy - Inferior to its fork, Gnote. Gnote has been updated for GNOME
3; Tomboy hasn't.
Additionally, I really want to get rid of XTerm and "Linux 32-bit
Terminal," since I suspect almost everyone uses GNOME Terminal. But
these are dependencies of LightWM, which is in one of the base
patterns....
