I want to know when support for Mdk-8.1 will be forthcoming... I can't believe its that terribly different from 8.0.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but besides geeks who aqquire HP-UX machines via ebay and dumpsters, who wouls use ximian gnome. Perhaps its imply becasue I've never even seen an HP-UX in my life, but I would assume that Solaris/Sun is the defacto standard for commercial unix desktops.

Who really wants to run Ximian Gnume when they can just use CDE with the "Russ Nelson's Fahsion Glasses" plug-in?
Thousands of innocent men and women put their heart and souls into the development of CDE, and you people have the gall to make light of it? My *god* people, GET SOME PRIORITIES!
You people disgust me!
Isn't the current version of Ximain Gnome at 1.4? Does this mean that they had problems with Nautilus on HP-UX and just decided to use GMC and call it 1.2? Maybe this helps explain the CDE compatible mode that you can select when running the Ximian setup program for the first time.
the good ground has been paved over by suicidal maniacs
I'm kinda glad, as UNIX needs a new face. It is interesting that Ximian / Gnome is the one that it is getting rather than kde. Both HP and Sun are kinda backing gnome. Interesting though
Only 'flamers' flame!
Ximian also launched their Red Carpet Express service today-- it's a high-bandwidth paid-subscription deal where you pay like 10 bucks a month and get faster downloads. I'm totally down with ponying up a little cash to be able to max out my cablemodem.
Both the HP-UX release, and the Red Carpet Express launch are good news for Ximian in terms of real dollars rolling in.
I'm pretty excited about the Express thing-- it's a good opportunity to support a company that does great stuff for the community.

It's all well and good that they're getting Ximian to work in other places, but how about adding some support for Mandrake 8.1?
Anyone know of any plans to get ximian on FreeBSD or any other BSDs?
