Your comments/complaints will not be heard by anyone on the GNOME team 
on this list. If you wish to discuss any changes to GNOME3 you are 
better off posting to the desktop[1] list. Note: The desktop list is not 
a gripe area. You should have concrete issues with possible solutions. 
Patches will help drive your idea(s) further, too.
