I do have a problem with gnome-shell, that is my individual opinion. But I also read a lot of discussions among Gnome users where the new way of Gnome seems to split the community much more than the KDE3.5 to KDE4 change. This has been said already way back when we started to get the first requests for Gnome3 in Mageia1. Since that time we always told the users that implementing Gnome3 will be subject to discussion after the Mageia 1 release. So I was a bit surprised that this was done kind of automagically without any discussion. Besides this I agree to Michael's suggestion. -- wobo
