This would involve providing configurable options to uses and, as far as I can tell, it would appear that the primary goal of the Gnome project is to deny users all forms of choice. > <offtopic> > Don't people find it funny that we, as a community, know all about > incremental improvements when it comes to patch management, but we behave > like righteous a--holes when it comes to imposing what we believe to be > the Right Way (TM) onto others?
