The competition worked hard at API stability. Even abandoned experiments like silverlight are going to work identically for years in new os versions. GNOME decided to break it all the time (can't even get extensions work from one gnome-shell version to the next one and no gracefully disabling is still functional breakage). And thus it 'lost to the competition'. No amount of indirection and sandboxing is going to hide the utter lack of regard for stability of our core desktop project -- Nicolas Mailhot -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
