The best of OS desktops ...
by Carlos Alberto on Thu 2nd Jun 2005 01:19 UTC

The great about desktop environments is the fact that everyone could go and change them.

Sometimes the developers know that some areas must me improved, but they are focuded on some other areas. So, if you have the skills, why don't go and make that change?

I see a lot of times that general developers don't feel comfortable about the desktops out there (Gnome, Kde, etc), but don't do anything to change that. They just say 'that sucks, and that too'.

Even for users, thet could try to make a comment on list. Or maybe that communication channel should be improved. But that fact remains: the most you dislike, the most you can do.
