Actually a lot of research and reason went into GNOME 3's development [1], and we picked it up because we are an upstream distro [2]. So um, no, there was no "thrusting" going on. Again, you're gonna need better reasons than 'Alan Cox and Linus don't like it' especially because Linus uses it... ~m [1] https://live.gnome.org/GnomeShell/Design#Research.2C_testing_and_validation [2] https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Staying_close_to_upstream_projects -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
