I just read this very interesting (and frustrating) article and wondered if any of you have read it: https://igurublog.wordpress.com/2012/11/05/gnome-et-al-rotting-in-threes/ . Any thoughts? While the kernel goes on under Linus' (prudent and often wise) direction, are things really this bad elsewhere in the FLOSS world? Is it just "Linux" projects that act this way? All this talk by developers of "brand" is just bizarre. The fact that they have any usership at all is thanks to other brands (Ubuntu, Fedora, Debian, or just "Linux"). I'm not referring to just Gnome here. Seems like a lot of projects lately have devs who are hell-bent on heading down their own path despite what people who actually use their software would think or want. Makes me really sad because Linux still has a lot of potential and I've enjoyed using it over the years because it could be made to be a useful tool to serve my needs.
Anyway. Maybe I'm just ungrateful. Back to Metro... (I kid I kid) /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
