From 1996 to 2005, I bought SuSE Linux and Open Suse Novell,
considering thus participate in the war against WindOverDose affort. I was
rich at the time! I have bought / paid for the wind?
The Geek want to improve their system. Anything inconsistent with
the "popular" user, the "grand public"?
The developers teams must leave the projects private despots. They are
idiots and sufficient, and do not know they are wrong because they believe
themselves incapable of error. They proclaim themselves experts
in "windows management", and as such decide for others, especially
for "ordinary" users, and possibly, for "ordinary" (-: Trinity team)
developers. There was one who spoke in these lists. In my opinion, KDE team
committed suicide and killed Suse with him.

At the time Lisa + Macinsosh were models for Microsoft, everything was
getting better [1985 .. 1995]. Now, Microsoft "Vista" (and following) is
the model for Linux: how, starting from the mediocrity, do not get
mediocrity?

Shades of KDE4. I got attacked for daring not to
like KDE4. I was
bullied to say why I didn't like it, then told that my reasons were
rubbish and I had no right to be a "KDE4 refuser". So Gnome 3 is going
the same way. Aren't we lucky?
Looking for information about Windows 8 acceptance/refusal I found out
those that don't like "Metro" get the same treatment.... Seems
"forward is the way to go even if it's not good for you" is a very
general rule.
Some dream of Linux becoming a "popular" OS - maybe it actually
already has. And maybe I'd prefer it remains a Geek OS....
