so this means that work on it will stop? or will it return in gnome 2.18?
fedora already has the required X server + libs so why can't it be left
enabled in FC6 (disabled in gconf) ? if someone wants to use it he/she
can enable it but know we have to recompile metacity (and this can't be
done in extras because it would replace a core package)
