Thank you for answering. Sometimes, I wonder if your intention is to simply replace Gnome Shell by Unity as the default desktop shell* or if your intention is more ambitious and you plan to develop your own DE (over Wayland, I guess). I would prefer the former rather than the latter since it would imply a stronger commitment in the collaboration of the Gnome development, although from what you say I deduce that you (Canonical and Gnome) have strong differences in your points of view.
Despite that I like very much Gnome (and I am excited for its next release), I also think that KDE and XFCE have a lot of to offer, specially XFCE when it comes to computers with low resources. I have also been wondering why did you not use XFCE for the netbook distribution (maybe the user experience will be strange from desktop to netbook). In the next weeks I will give a try to Gnome3, Natty, Unity and even KDE** and, as you say, I hope to see Gnome3 soon in Ubuntu. My bests. Cédric *: it is in my understanding that Unity is more a desktop shell than a desktop environment, correct me if I am wrong. **: I confess I never liked it too much since I always had bad experiences with it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/648180 Title: Unity sucks -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
