I can just imagine the arguments about how to describe GNOME 3. I'm not sure that "a steaming pile of foetid dingo's kidneys", as some people would describe GNOME 3, would do it. :-) > 2. if you really need a default take a sane one and not GNOME3 See above: there is not agreement among all Fedora developers.
