I find it disturbing reading some of these arguments about simply allowing one environment to have equal footing with another! You would think people are trying to *replace* GNOME with KDE. It is a shame that GNOME advocates are fighting tooth and nail to try and desperately keep their dying desktop alive. It should be very clear within the coming years that KDE is by far the superior desktop. KDE advocates should not stress too much over it now. In a couple more years I suspect most distributions will be forced to switch to KDE because GNOME is basically moving in the wrong direction and is falling way too far behind. You might disagree with this statement, but you are simply just burying your head in the sand if you do. I think the real hidden underlying argument is what does a RHEL user want, and I think the RedHat people feel that a typical RHEL user is not a power desktop user and would be more comfortable with GNOME, so therefore the RedHat team will fight the community tooth and nail to keep their simplistic desktop no matter how much the Fedora community wants KDE. The RedHat GNOME advocates do not even want KDE to be on equal footing with GNOME because they already fear KDE's growing popularity. Unfortunately for them, in a few more years they wont have much choice because by that time their RHEL customers will be demanding KDE. -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
