That's no reason to pollute the $HOME space for people that do use $HOME as desktop today. $HOME != desktop is nothing but an hack to avoid having to clean up all the legacy apps that put random files here. It's not a license to perpetuate the mess in new Gnome facilities. New apps $HOME usage should set the example so $HOME can be reappropriated in the future. -- Nicolas Mailhot -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
