So maybe we should also not install it by default as part of your "do nothing" plan? I agree that switching the default in 6 months would be bad, but I just tried gthumb and it seems to be really good now - so do we know if Photos will be ready in 6 months? Because if it's not ready for F22, we might as well switch to gthumb by default until then. -- -Elad Alfassa. -- desktop mailing list desktop@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop
