As I said before, if the authors assume the reader is running Gnome then it would be more honest to call the document the "Gnome Users Manual". It's actually pretty damaging to Fedora to give the impression that if you prefer KDE you should choose another distribution. I think I am fairly broad-minded, but when I was told that my enquiry was inappropriate because I was running KDE I more or less lost interest in the documentation project - which in my opinion should be the most important aspect of Fedora. -- Timothy Murphy e-mail (<80k only): tim /at/ birdsnest.maths.tcd.ie tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland -- fedora-docs-list mailing list fedora-docs-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-docs-list
