It's a tautology. The cognative dissonance required to misconstrue an extension framework that has provided people with a previously impossible amount of customization in Gnome as something negative is quite astounding. Please do not take this personally but I have read through sooooo many Gnome Shell threads that have been derailed by a cacaphony of non-constructive criticism. Before the signal to noise decay starts, can the Gnome 3 haters please take such negative non-constructive commentary to the many, many ... many "Gnome Sux" threads. I am a fan of Gnome 3, I can see the big step that has been taken and can forgive some lack of polish and wanted to start a conversation about a possible future framework to make sure gnome was helpful for simplicity and tweaker freaks alike. The customization potential has given me the impetus to improve my javascript knowledge enough to try my hand at it. Extensibility is a potential, not a deficit. /Mike -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
