Please let me chip in with a list of items which are important to me. I am not sure if the list is complete, maybe others can help complete it. 1. Showstopper problems: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=746462 (Note: Although few people seem to be working in this dual monitor configuration, it makes Gnome/Gnome classic a personal no-go for me as I have gotten very used to working in dual-screen in this way and will not want to give it up. Bug is still present in F20, although it's been auto-closed long ago. It's a bug after all, so why not fix it...) 2. Things that are not really showstoppers, but where cinnamon in direct comparision is ahead, and which would be much missed: * Right-click menu on task bar (as back in Gnome 2) * Configurable vertical maximize (or better a good default binding for vertical maximize) * Optional or default bottom task/menubar only (more natural for working in configurations like item 1 above, also on modern 16x9 displays, the vertical space is much more precious than it was back in the 4x3 era, while horizontal space is not an issue with current monitor resolutions) 3. Crazy ideas/nice to have/food for thought: I posted the following his list, see bottom of mail in link: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/desktop/2013-December/008530.html Summary: * Right-click launching of applications from desktop (reason: controlled positioning of windows) * Confluence of CLI and file browser * Hierarchical taskbar/window hierarchy All items to improve workflows with many/big screens, mixture of CLI/GUI work, large number of open windows I very much appreciate the steering committee's decision to go with current Gnome, which appears the only sustainable choice, and I hope that it will develop to a state that it is competitive or winning in every category that is important for productive work. I don't think it's missing much, but see list above... --Marcel -- desktop mailing list desktop@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop
