"During this years GUADEC Red Hat developer Havoc Pennington proposed his idea of an 'Online Desktop' to the developers of the GNOME project. Through deep integration with web services and 'zero-maintenance' the Open Source client aims to get the 'perfect window to the Internet'. During GUADEC Andreas Proschofsky had the chance to talk to Pennington about advantages and possible problems of the Online Desktop concept, the necessity of Windows-support and about Red Hats 'return to the desktop'."

"""
Ubuntu installs Mono by default as a dependency for F-Spot.
"""
Is F-spot part of standard Gnome? Or just an application available for Gnome? I think it is just an application available for it, like beagle.
I am glad that we have mono for compatibility purposes and perhaps to lure .net programmers. But I would never want to see us depend upon it for infrastructure, for a number of reasons.
Yes, I know that people have different opinions on the matter. But that's mine. And it is firm.
