RH and GNOME
Well it is now official -- Redhat fully owns GNOME. They just brought
on Miguel and Federico (two of the top GNOMErs). Last week they started
Owen Taylor (one of the head gtk+ people). So now the whole Linux world
is stuck following RH's lead. I am already fighting Raster on E. He
refuses to accept any changes to the Makefile or config scripts to allow
installation in anything but /usr/local/enlightenment. Imlib and Fnlib
both have libtool problems, both Jim Pick and I have told him, even sent
suggestions -- to no avail. It works for him, so screw all of us.
Sorry if this sounds like more whining, conspiracy theories or
whatever. Thought I would just express my experiences. After what I
saw at Linux Expo, I felt I needed to let you all know how the GNOME
world stands. Damn shame that KDE went non-free. I hate to be beholden
on another dist.
