So in spite of the fact that activities have been an Epic Failure from day one, they are going to continue with them instead of backing them out or providing a way to turn them off all together? Another My way or the Highway fix?
Activities don't work reliably. They NEVER have.
Virtual desktops have always worked reliable. Since the Pleistocene!
Do NOT turn over what works to the same people who can not make activities work!
Ah, what one can accomplish with a "positive attitude".
You have a contribution?
Ah, can't defeat the argument, so attack the messenger, eh Patrick?
You can watch the sorry state of Activities here direct from the KDE Americas conference 2010. Pretty pathetic. She couldn't make it work. She couldn't even explain it.
What have we done for the troll brigade to descend on the openSUSE lists this week?
FWIW activities have enabled me to improve my workflow tremendously. They work just fine (with the minor exception of excessive use of the ZUI, which will be fixed by 4.5) and have done since 4.2. For every shouting troll there are many satisfied users staying quiet, and I hope the developers don't give up just because of nonsense like this. Besides if you don't like the features, don't use them. This hate just makes you look ridiculous.

One of the things that never ceases to amaze me on this list is the ease with which certain people resort to accusing others of being trolls just because they dont agree with the others ideas / ideals , This is to say the least Childish and at best immature so get the message grow up quit with the childish name calling and listen then when you can make sensible argument speak till then STFU ..
