It is certainly worth discussing this at the next UDS how each project is doing and what we predict is the best for the future. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk1cvwIACgkQGOqhiQ98iC5hmwCfSXiRie6x9I0TiJFzJdpVMWXN tYwAn0tk1qfs2ijt8berfhYrDWxQAuLL =WsRP -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- ubuntu-desktop mailing list ubuntu-desktop@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-desktop
