A few weeks ago we published an article titled "The Great Mac OS X 10.4 Wish List", detailing a few personal wishes for the next version of OSX. Later I learned that quite a few Apple engineers read the article and so it felt good that the time spent writing the article was not just a voice in the void. A reader emailed me a few days ago asking me to do the same for other OSes and DEs. So here is my personal wish-list for a future version of Gnome. Please tell us about your own Gnome wish list in the comment section provided.

bit hard to distinguish between a linux-distro (in my case, fc1) and gnome as such, but anyways:
1.(by a wide margin) being able to stream content from windows-pcs (mp3, divx etc.) just as easy i can with when booted into my windows xp. smb-integration doesn't get better, it even gets worse (yes, i know about linneighbourhood)!
2. a fully functional wmp-equivalent (_no_, xine, totem and mplayer aren't up to the task!). but it seems that helixplayer will take care of that (a shame that the open-source-developers seem not to be able to deliver a complete solution since years).
3. cleaning-up and consolidation of configuration-menues (much too shattered)
4. fasterloading apps
5. the nice svg-themes installed by default (as well as reg. fedora, a more elegant bluecurve!)
6. "align after type" for desktop. also, the font-size of the desktop-icons seems to be bigger than the ones within nautilus
7. being able to choose icons of different themes for all instances of the same filetype (folders, .pdf. .doc etc.)
8. better printing (especially in color), but this is likely up to the printer-vendors
that are my major points...i also like the ideas of the gnome bounty-hunt-in general, more integration of all kind!
