And we do not need to input +immediately brightly new versions of some components that may pose some +issues by lack of massive testing and some functionalities that may be +missing or frustrate. .1 or .2 should resolve these issues. + +Personally, I am not convinced Gnome 3 is good yet, essentially in terms +of productivity. So it is not only because of some technical issues that +may appear more or less randomly, but also because of the concept of +Gnome 3 itself. But this is very subjective and I want to sort out my +own opinion as well. So basically this is essentially based on my sole +view. +</PRE> + + +<!--endarticle--> + <HR> + <P><UL> + <!--threads--> + <LI>Previous message: <A HREF="004607.html">[Mageia-discuss] Gnome3 on Mageia 1 +</A></li> + <LI>Next message: <A HREF="004609.html">[Mageia-discuss] Gnome3 on Mageia 1 +</A></li> + <LI> <B>Messages sorted by:</B> + <a href="date.html#4608">[ date ]</a> + <a href="thread.html#4608">[ thread ]</a> + <a href="subject.html#4608">[ subject ]</a> + <a href="author.html#4608">[ author ]</a> + </LI> + </UL> + +<hr> +<a href="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-discuss">More information about the Mageia-discuss +mailing list</a><br> +</body></html> |
