Don't be too down on them. Wayland and Unity might really be a good path forward. It is a grand experiment that can only be executed wholeheartedly by fiat, and Canonical is taking it on. We in Debian-land get to reap the benefits of Ubuntu's experiment if they get it working well, but don't have to deal with the upheaval until a lot of the kinks are smoothed out and don't have to touch it at all if the experiment fails. I call it win-win (and I also call it "better you than me"). > Greetings, > Camale??n --Greg -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
