Re: The point of GNOME/Offer of service

[Stephen Szyszkiewicz <mcsdsteve yahoo com>]

I guess I was trying to determine if this list was
aimed at actually developing/maintaining Gnome (the
overall UI) or applications that will work in Gnome
(like the Gnome Minesweeper). I am looking for the
overall strategy/vision of Gnome. What are we
developing here, and what gets installed with Gnome
and what gets installed seperately.

I am willing to put in 10-12 hours per week at least.
I have Fridays off from my regular job and I am
itching to learn Linux programming. Besides I have to
stop playing Quake or my brain will start to shrink
now that school is over.

I hope I can help.
