Release Team Proposes Gnome 3.0 Plans

benuski writes "Today at GUADEC, the Gnome User and Developer European Conference, the gtk+ team announced their plans for gtk+ 3.0; immediately after, the Gnome release team announced their plans for Gnome 2.30 to be changed into Gnome 3.0. This would mean a release date a year and a half to a year in the future. Details are short at the moment, but the Gnome team seems to be following in KDE's footsteps, but hopefully will avoid the problems that plagued KDE 4.0's release."

Re:Problem with KDE 4

Some people suggested removing the animation, which was a problem because it interfered with maximized windows, and he said no.

Some people suggested allowing people to move or relocate the cashew because it interfered with panels at the top, and he said no.

Some people suggested having the cashew disappear when the panel is locked, and he said no.

And frankly, no right-click means you can do a key+click.

The worst thing is he repeatedly said everyone was too stupid to understand his design, which he had no intention of explaining. He said users can't comment on design or UI issues. That is a problem.
