There are some things I would like to know will get included - for example will there be some alternative themes available at F15 release? I would like to be able to change the style of windows that open for applications - eg are there equivalents to the nodoka or glider window decorations that have existed for some time in Gnome2 ? I have been testing the last available iso for the Gnome 3 test day in the past evening or so - and it is certainly working much better than a few weeks ago though there are still some bugs that remain and it is not always fully stable yet - there is time before final GA though! I am also still not clear on whether it is easy to create a launcher for a program that is not in the system by default - for example if I want to run a nightly build of Thunderbird, and I have the binary available on the system, can I set up an icon that will be in the dash to launch it in the analogous way to setting up a custom launcher in Gnome2? -- mike c -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
