Gnome "The time it takes to log in to GNOME has not improved much in recent years and does not compare favourably with other systems, especially closed-source systems. This work attempts to determine what causes GNOME startup to be slow and what can be done to address the problem."

i'd really like to see something done with the init before that. init is really getting of age and is not the best/flexible thing to have on a desktop.
overall the bootup time is step in the right direction. it is essential for full linux laptop experience. the next step is really working standby/hibernate.
