Some interesting discussion about Desktop environments on Linux.

The Desktop leads are coming up with some utopian vision of a
new grand desktop environment "Social Desktop" as some say.

At the sametime, it begs the question
"Do developers really care about users ?"

One user writes
 "Developers shouldn't be in charge of GUIs.

Whats your take ?


thanks
