Hi Michael,

I am running GNOME on Fedora right now as I have recently become a big fan of the GNOME desktop.
In 1996 I typed 'linux' into an Alta Vista search and chose Debian as my distro because it was the first hit. In a similar manner in 2011, a GNOME Documentation hackfest came to town, and in order to participate I needed GNOME 3 to function on my (then Ubuntu) laptop. The ppa install wasn't cooperating that week so I took along a downloaded copy of the GNOME 3 Live DVD, booted it, installed git using zypper and participated successfully. Shortly after that I installed openSUSE on a new ThinkPad. I later found out that the live DVD had been coined by Frederic Crozat, and I was able to get some hands-on help from him with a kernel/video driver issue at Desktop Summit in Berlin (where I also met some of the other openSUSE guys). Since then I've run openSUSE GNOME:Factory as my stable-ish GNOME development desktop, and dual-booted Mageia which sometimes has newer packages. (Fedora runs on my -- seldom-used -- desktop machine.) If I post a question here, Dominique has often already experienced, and solved, the issue. These days I'm (frantically) writing some 3.6 help pages, and eagerly await the landing of the contents of GNOME:Next in GNOME:Factory.
