http://spins.fedoraproject.org/ http://spins.fedoraproject.org/kde/ http://spins.fedoraproject.org/xfce/ And, just to push it, http://spins.fedoraproject.org/jam-kde/ (Music creation oriented, KDE based). Rather than arguing about defaults it's maybe time for people to vote with their feet. There has been for quite some time a view that the default doesn't need changing because it's better to offer multiple options, that has perhaps given Gnome an easy ride as the default. And Fedora is now the gnome-centric distribution. People might start taking notice when the spins begin to overtake the official release in popularity. -- imalone http://ibmalone.blogspot.co.uk -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
