Here’s an interesting conversation that Linus decided to dip his toes in. Whilst he raises some good points I think that, like on other occasions, his comments are based heavily around his own preferences and maybe do not reflect a wider audience. Some of Jeff’s responses are very well thought out and explain with a little more clarity where GNOME is coming from.
CPT says:
I think Linus would be the only person who could flame a gnome mailing list and not only get a response, but get responses from the biggest names behind gnome (Jdub, havoc, nat). I personally think he’s wrong, and he’s right.
The hard thing is I can’t imagine a better GUI than MacOS X.
the frog says:
That’s because there is no better GUI than OS X.
