Well, when those responsible for the debacle thumb their nose at the
users, all that's left is for users to badmouth them. The old adage,
"there's no such thing as bad publicity," isn't really true.
I'm not talking about saying that you don't like GNOME or that GNOME 3
is terrible. But just badmouthing is bad form.
A strong movement against Gnome on the users list /may/ move Fedora
away
from using it by default. Distributions moving away from it /may/ have
an effect on its developers.
We actually have more developers than ever before (since starting with
GNOME 3).
And as I've said, I'm happy that there is a discussion (or just
downright "I hate it"). But please keep it respectful.
