We need to (quickly) decide on a defaultCD/DVD burning solution for 10.3. gnome-baker used to be kind of defacto, but brasero seems to be the new hotness. What to people think?
Brasero: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/jproseve/openSUSE_Factory/
gnome-baker: Factory
Why not just nautilus (for data discs) and Banshee (for audio discs)?
Yes, thats basically what we do now, but we get requests for more complex burning options like are provided with k3b.
Well, Brasero and gnome-baker (and k3b as well) should be available to people that need complex options. I just don't think it should be the default for everyone.
I'm afraid having one of these applications installed might "mislead" users to try them before the simpler options. Even my mom and dad can burn discs as it is now, but for example asking them to browse the file system when writing a music disc would most likely result in failure and frustration.

That's a great point and I agree with you!

I think that having one of these integrated to the point of replacing all the functions of the nautilus tools as those work now and having the opportunity to open the full program gui as and "advanced"(i.e. right click on iso and see burn to disk or open in advanced mode) option at any point makes more sense and better benefits the growth of Gnome as a whole. The KDE doesn't, IIRC, have a "dumbed down" version just tighter integration. As a desktop, it's ok for the Gnome to make some "Standard" choices like adding a burning software or office suite as long as it doesn't exclude the options of replacing those choices.
We can't for the sake of our parents ignore the needs of our children.
p.s. someone mentioned earlier that they had issues with the nautilus tools rejecting media while GnomeBaker accepted it and burned perfectly usable discs, I second that, it just happened to me again and I'm on the hardened\tested\certified enterprise ready SLED10SP1!. -- James Tremblay Director of Technology Newmarket School District Newmarket,NH http://en.opensuse.org/Education "let's make a difference" -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help@opensuse.org
