Hey GNOMEers,
I've got some suggested changes to the applications we install by default:
Proposed additions: bijiben, deja-dup
Bijiben ("Notes"): The new GNOME notes app. Alternatively we could add Gnote, which is almost the same as Tomboy. Both can import Tomboy notes.
+1 from me
DejaDup: See Atri's email [1]. This app is great. Ubuntu patches it into GNOME Control Center (we don't need to do that).
+1 from me
Proposed to drop: alacarte, gbrainy, tomboy
alacarte - GNOME 2 menu editor, no longer makes sense since GNOME has no menus. Or separators. Or categories (in GNOME 3.8). It doesn't even seem to be capable of hiding/showing apps anymore (the only feature that worked in 12.2).
-0.5 from me - I'm still partial to alacarte as it's an easy way of creating/managing application shortcuts even if it doesn't fully mesh with GNOME 3.8's way of doing things
gbrainy - Nothing functionally wrong here, but I'd like to move to mostly GNOME 3 apps by default, and gbrainy is clearly not planning to do so.
+0 from me - don't mind either way
tomboy - Inferior to its fork, Gnote. Gnote has been updated for GNOME 3; Tomboy hasn't.
+1 but only if Bijiben or Gnote get added
Additionally, I really want to get rid of XTerm and "Linux 32-bit Terminal," since I suspect almost everyone uses GNOME Terminal. But these are dependencies of LightWM, which is in one of the base patterns....
I've used XTerm to save the day when I've had GNOME in a very messy state in the past. Yes, I know I'm crazy, but I dont see the harm in letting this one slide. Thanks for the ideas!

Hello Michael,
IMHO, if you think to drop alacarte then you should take care of alternative way to set programs especially the ones you are not installing with openSUSE packages, in order you can set them properly.
One of most annoying aspect in new Gnome concept (to my eyes) is the apparent lack of configuration settings, as well as too many "hidden functions" which need too much time to be discovered.
