"Throwing away" seems a little dramatic. I get the importance of design. Building and reinforcing the Fedora brand is a marketing requirement — one of the things the design needs to accomplish.

I'd like to see a lot more of it. -- Matthew Miller <mattdm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Fedora Project Leader _______________________________________________ desktop mailing list -- desktop@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to desktop-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
