| We could try to excuse the issue and say, 
| "Well, KDE is huge now. 600+ developers 
| contributing to the last release, even more 
| translators, artists and others. That's a 
| lot of people to move about!" While this is 
| true, I don't think it is the whole 
| picture.

The Difference a Decade Makes

,----[ Quote ]
| The evolution away from these origins has 
| sometimes seemed slow. Often, in looking at a 
| GNOME release, I have been disappointed in the 
| apparent lack of progress. Yet looking back 
| over the 2.0 series as a whole, I now suspect 
| that part of that perception was impatience on 
| my part.
| 
| [...]
| 
| That's something to remember while we look 
| forward to GNOME 3.0 six months from now. 
| GNOME 3.0 marks a new chapter in the free 
| desktop. It is going to be attracting 
| increasing attention, both from those who 
| enthuse over it and those who condemn it as 
| misguided or new. Yet in the excitement of 
| GNOME 3.0, I think it worth looking back at 
| the GNOME 2.0, and congratulating all involved 
| on an impressive work in progress.

A sneak peak at GNOME 3

,----[ Quote ]
| Now I will warn you that I am a fan of
| GNOME. I understand that KDE did the same
| thing when they re-invented their take on
| the desktop. The difference is â the
| innovation from KDE seemed more like a
| âretooling with added featuresâ. GNOME 3
| will be a milestone for the desktop. I have
| head some people say it is too much like
| the âiPhone interfaceâ. To those I have to
| say âuse it firstâ. But no matter where you
| stand, GNOME 3 is going to be different,
| and this article will show you how to
| install it and give you a first glance.
