I read it a few days ago. My questions were already been discussed, indeed.
But I thought that pointing this topic with a new discussion was a quite
good idea.

All what I try to say is, maybe a better looking Xfce spin would be more
appealing.
Sure, we all agree on that, but we are not sure if Greybird is the way
to go. I pointed out some usability issues and I prefer going with
Bridge because
       * it's more restrained
       * it provides the same "corporate identity" as Adwaita/GNOME.
No problem, Greybird was just a suggestion among others :)
I like Adwaita, and I loved the old Bluecurve setup.

As I said previously, in my own case I really don't care.
But a lot of users are looking after an alternative to Gnome3 (Gnome2
refugees for example) and I think that Xfce is the most valuable here.
I am trying to not repeat myself and I don't want to sound rude, but I'd
like to emphasize that Xfce is *not* intended to be a GNOME clone. We
not aiming to deliver the best desktop for GNOME 3 refugees but the best
Xfce experience.

Whoever wants to help is welcome of course, so I appreciate your input.
I apologize if I'm a bit annoying or whatever, my english is quite rusty so I can't explain completely what I want to explain. And be sure that I know and I agree about the fact that Xfce doesn't aims to be the best Gnome3 refugees desktop, but the best Xfce desktop. I run on Openbox, Awesome, other standalone WMs, and Xfce, so I'm not one of those refugees, even if I tried Gnome3 sometimes.

And as you say, I try to contribute to this spin. I have created a Fedora Remix but I would like to get involved into a more official project.

Kind regards,
Christoph
