What I don't understand why people claim this list is open to all ideas
then attack people for saying things they don't want to hear. If people
would have just ignore statements of the OP I would not have to have
read multiple posts of people attacking him.

Gnome3.2 is a mess and one hopes that the developers will hear peoples
complaints and respond. I agree the attacks might be better on the Gnome
list, but we say what we want to say and if it is about Linux and or
Fedora I think it should be acceptable.
