Re: [Trisquel-users] Could Trisquel 8 switch to MATE?

Well, if we want to keep using Metacity we're never getting window tiling -  
and it's not GNOME's fault. Metacity never had it and Compiz didn't have  
drag-to-edge tiling until 0.9 anyway. It's got nothing to do with GNOME 3.

But yeah, if you want tiling with a stacking window manager that doesn't ask  
for 3D acceleration, I wouldn't call MATE an unwise option.
