RE: Gnome support? we don´t need no stinking support! (read as in "badges, we don´t need no stinkin´ badges")

[Richard Evans <richard evans datanomic com>]

Having been a Gnome 2 user for years, I'm certainly have big problems with Gnome 3.

Things I miss in a big way include:

	. adding stuff to top panel so I can launch them with a single click - a opposed to getting up the activities stuff and going to favourites
	. single click on workspace applet to switch workspaces
	. single click on bottom panel to switch to specific open app
	. single click to minimise or maximise a window
	. weather on the top panel

Gnome 3 may be more logical (and is certainly beautiful) but it is very hard to move to from Gnome 2.  Maybe if you learn all the keyboard shortcuts things get easier.

Just an opinion ...

I cant understand why so many people seem to hate Gnome 3. I think its 
brilliant. Perfectly logical, clean, simple, easy to understand and 
beautiful looking.

Just cant wait for it to be packaged up into Debian & Cent OS

In contrast I personally find KDE totally bizarre and cant work out how 
to do anything on it, same with Unity, plus like all Ubuntu's UIs, Unity 
is fugly.
