To all other ppl. please keep the usability list included since this really is something they should be aware of.
Keep in mind that cross-posting to multiple lists sucks for everyone who is not a member of all of them because they'll get bounces pointing that out, and there's a fair chance that they won't get moderator approval and ever appear.
True. and they are apparently afraid that my idea gets through because i have been put on moderation. feel free to do whatever you think is right. at this moment i'm sick of gnome.
As far as I can tell, you're disappointed with the way that the Fedora community has responded to your opinion. Instead of trying to create a fight or drag this issue upstream, why don't you just use another distribution?
Why did you mailed this to me only and not the lists. O well, i said it in this thread but you probably didn't read it. I don't blame you.. there are about 250 messages in this thread ^_^
To the subject. I said that i did find ubuntu better then fedora and that i did use it but i prefer the RPM system and in those distributions i like fedora the most. My top 2 list is: 1. Fedora 2. Ubuntu
And i keep swapping between those 2. Right now i need fedora because of a development project and i'm more familiar with rpm then i am with debs. specially on repairing an RPM issue. repairing a deb issue is a lot more painful. That's why i use fedora and that's why i don't switch to another os (for now). I also find rpm to be more flexible to use then deb but that might be because i didn't do much deb devel stuff and did rpm devel stuff (rebuilding and making rpms/debs).
The best case for me would be a ubuntu using the rpm structure instead of deb.
btw. lets NOT start flaming about the advantages and disadvantages of rpm vs deb. i'm well aware of those!
So that's why.
