Hi everybody,

Factory is nearing up to the 12.1 look and feel and I, as one of the
Compiz maintainers, was wondering if it is in any way useful to keep
compiz around for this release.

The most 'prominent' DE using it was gnome, but with the move to GNOME 3
(actually 3.2 for the release), Compiz does not make sense (only one
compositing manager can run at any time, so compiz and gnome-shell
conflict). KDE4.x has most of the features of compiz anyway directly
integrated (as far as I know).

Is there anybody using compiz on other DEs? (lxde/xfce, even though that
would be a bit contradicting their 'light' advertisement).

If nobody cares for it, I might as well drop it from Factory; X11:Comiz
will obviously stay around for as long as I find enough time to make it
build with current infra..

In case anybody wants to keep it: That also means somebody needs to TEST
it during Factory periods.

Just collecting thoughts here.

Dominique
