GNOME and KDE Devs Wrangle Over 'System Settings' Name

Posted by timothy on from the keyboard-chooser-by-any-other-name dept.

An anonymous reader writes "The developer of the KDE System Settings application has launched a formal complaint against GNOME for renaming 'Control Center' to 'System Settings' in GNOME 3.0. This developer is demanding that GNOME immediately change the name of their control panel area. Developers on both sides are now discussing this act."
