Now, to set some logic straight: - If this really was about making things simpler for _new_ users, the default desktop should be GNOME, not KDE.
It is not. It is about the perception in the KDE community that it is not treated fairly.
Well, many different arguments have been put for this change; but IMHO doing this to salve a KDE community perception problem is perhaps the lamest rational I've heard. To fix a fairness perception problem in the KDE community, by simply transferring it to the GNOME community (exacerbating their existing perception of not being treated fairly in other areas) doesn't seem like progress to me. Indeed, are there not other, more constructive ways to improve people's perception of openSUSE ? Do you not agree that the immediate perception problem can be in part addressed by a more fair ordering (based on popularity), and more helpful descriptive text explaining that ?
