Of course Alice can. All of us can. Hopefully it is constructive criticism. Seeing good software being replaced by less good, less useful and more awkward software usually provoke the software's users to protest. Free software should be funded. In the European Union (28 member states) funding could easily be provided by the EU to support Open Source Software. Just consider how much government cash M$ has received (USD billions). A few million Euros to OSS is certainly desirable. As a C5 Gnome 2 user I dread G3 when I move my desktop to C6. Mate seems an alternative. Anyone know more about the G2 folk ? -- Regards, Paul.
