If you don't use nautilus, why not remove the package? If you want to

Hi,
I'm going to orphan various packages that are not team maintained and
I'm doing a terrible job on.
- doclifter
- last-exit (probably could be adopted by pkg-gnome)
- scw
- smooth-themes (this may be able to be removed from the archive
entirely)
Anyone want these?

It's a check box under the comment field, "Add me to CC list". It's not

Contrary to popular belief GNOME isn't about removing as many features

We already have this, debian/copyright generally only contains a

It can be very tricky. The GNOME Team are currently working through a
list of all packages using GTK+ 1 which can be dropped from the archive,
so we should be able to drop lots of the old libraries.

Personally, I prefer gnome-foo-applet. In the cases where the applet

I'd also be quite annoyed if I was mailed the upstream changelog when a
bug was closed, as these can often get rather large.

If you want to see every change which was made to the source, read the

Someone did some rather rough timing of Debian vs Mandrake vs Gentoo:

Not the best benchmarking, but at least there are numbers. :)
I'll be removing eggcups once the memory leak issue is fixed.
Unfortunately the gnome-cups-maintainer has gone on holiday and I don't
have time at the moment to learn the details of the CUPS API.
