Its getting more and more confusing as more and more names are coming up,i think its better to keep that page as it is or we can add some distributions which are using gnome (tweaked gnome) not pure gnome like linux mint in small letters with the other distribution names On Tue, Apr 3, 2012 at

Hey all, My view is that this page should help newcomers get hold of GNOME 3, either to try it or run it full time. This is the main place on the web for people to get this information. It is a prominent public-facing page. The focus should be on assisting non-experts, therefore. We know there is

I want Mageia to be removed from this list the way it is now. You're not getting GNOME 3 with the stated instructions. As such, I don't want it in there. I'd be sorry to see it removed. Would it be possible for Mageia to host instructions explaining how to install GNOME 3, do you think? Allan

I think the reasoning for including Ubuntu on the page is two fold: 1) Its a very popular distro, and lots of people want to know how to get GNOME 3 on it 2) Its quite easy to get a good GNOME 3 install on Ubuntu - simply add the ppa and install (or in the case of the getting gnome page, just

Hi! Shortly before the 3.4 release the web team made some adjustments to the page http://www.gnome.org/getting-gnome/ This made the links for Arch Linux, Mageia and Debian smaller. I feel some explaining of the rationale behind this is in order so that we don't end up with the same thing again
