Agreed, as well as joining the Gnome usability list.

I've been lurking on the list much of late, but I will be damned if I 
have to sit here and watch some snot-nosed CS101 punk "dis'" Linus.

Gnome developers, on the other hand...well, I would say they have it 
coming to them, but I think that would be incorrect:  the problem was a 
lack of communication, a lack of feedback on big changes.

I'm not the only one caught off-guard by the changes in Gnome 3 -- nor 
do I have to like the game of "gotcha" people played when I first 
brought it up.  Alas, I haven't had anywhere near the time to put into 
supporting change that I'd like.  (Maybe this will be the impetus that 
lights a fire under my tail end.)
