Feature added by: Ali H Zadeh (ilAli) Feature #314366, revision 1 Title: openSUSE developers efforts has been fragmented, i think. openSUSE Distribution: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important openSUSE Infrastructure: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Ali H Zadeh (ilali) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: To whom it may concern, I think openSUSE developers efforts has been fragmented because of lacking focus in one Desktop Environment. I think developing an independent and community driven linux distro such as openSUSE and trying releasing that with more than one DE such as KDE, Gnome, ... cause to some problems such as fragmenting developers effort and some times delay in releasing distro (openSUSE 12.2 delays). most of people out of this forum advise their friends to use openSUSE if they want a sweat KDE experience. it shows that openSUSE reputation is about it's integrity and focus on KDE. nobody advise his/her friend to use openSUSE with Gnome or XFCE or ... (all of these DEs are OK but openSUSE users usually use KDE and think openSUSE with KDE is the best). i want to suggest openSUSE developers to only focus on KDE. they could make an excellent distro with one DE instead of make a good distro with 2 avasilable DE. and for users that may want to try other DEs, they could use suse studio. i think it would be very useful to start a Poll about this suggestion. i started a thread about my suggestion in openSUSE forums in this address: http://forums.opensuse.org/forums/english/other-forums/looking-something-oth... thanks.
