Fedora Core is supposed to be a cutting edge distro, and for the most part, it is. As a community, however, we must not be afraid to bring up new ideas to a distribution with so much a standardized history. For Fedora to remain cutting edge, it must be willing to change. I am a KDE user, and I am because I find it easier, faster, lighter, more stable, more friendly, more cusomizable, more elegant, and more powerful than GNOME. Will this change? perhaps. I used to like GNOME better, but that changed when Sawfish changed to Metacity. (around RHL 7.3-- 8.0 was metacity) Will requesting that Fedora become KDE based instead of GNOME based be likely to make a major impact here? no. Is it important that I request? yes. I do so, because it alerts the developers to views of Feora Core's users. OpenSource must be about Open Minds as well as free software. I am up to a lively discussion about KDE vs. GNOME, and a friendly reminder that GNOME must remain the focus of Fedora Core for now, but I certainly hope that I will not get any responses that look down upon me for expressing my views.
