Re: [Trisquel-users] Ubuntu Netbook Edition?

[adrian . malacoda]

I can't speak for netbook users because I am not one, but I would rather not  
see Unity as a default on any Trisquel edition. Unity is engineered, like the  
desktop interfaces of proprietary OS's, to be nigh impossible to change and  
customize compared to Gnome 2, KDE, and other more lightweight shells and  
DE's.

Development of unity is headed by ubuntu (as opposed to community-oriented  
projects), and ubuntu's leaders tend to make unilateral decisions on things  
like that. If so desired, it's possible to create a Unity-like interface  
suitable for netbooks using either the current Gnome panel setup or a more  
lightweight DE.
