<PRE>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> There has already been zillions of discussions about this. We will not
</I>&gt;<i> have Cinnamon. We already have enough environments and not enough
</I>&gt;<i> maintainers. And it will cause troubles maintaining different versions.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>I volunteer to maintain cinnamon.  I've already ported it from fedora.  I
did
it because no one told me not to do it.

Please try to follow this. An open source project does not mean anybody
&gt;<i> can do whatever he wants. We must keep some kind of logic and stay
</I>&gt;<i> realistic given the resources we have at the moment.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>
There's this thing about not pushing away resources that are being
volunteered.

I've packaged cinnamon because I want to install it on my own machine. I
spent
10-12 hours a day taking orders from my boss, and working on community
projects
is the way that I relax.  If you want to use my work then that's great.  If
it turns out
that the X hours that I put into making cinnamon work on mageia is a waste,
then
I'll wipe mageia and install fedora or ubuntu or scientific linux or mint.

I have very little tolerance for politics or long winded discussions or
strategy
discussion.  I get enough of that in my day job.  I've just packaged
cinnamon and
nemo.  If someone says thank you, provides some suggestions for fixing
things,
and then takes it, I'll be happy.  If not, then I'll wipe my disk and work
on another distro.

So what do you want me to do?
