Yeah ! You see, you can even agree with me and Christian Marillat. :-)
I urge the technical committee to take a sensible decision (ie one of
the three solutions proposed in my initial mail) quickly. If you provide
us a resolution that imposes Gnome 2 and Gnome 1.4 to coexist on the
same system, you risk to have a bad precedent : nobody listening to the
technical committee because the recommandation is completely
inapplicable and has absolutely no supporters within the Gnome
maintainers.
