Let me just ask one thing. If we were talking about having GNOME be

I am just saying, try and put yourself in their shoes and see if you really feel the same way if the decision was reversed. I think this is just causing more issues than it is "supposed" to be trying to resolve.
Given the current reality of more than twice as many KDE users than Gnome, yes i would object to such a decision.
If those statistics were reversed then i like to believe that i would (grudgingly) accept Gnome as the default if the opensuse board decided that a default desktop would be beneficial to opensuse.
I would object regardles of the statistics.

Is that because you believe that pre-selecting a default DE on install will not be of net benefit to opensuse? Fine, but that is not the conclusion reached by the opensuse bods. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help@opensuse.org
