[GTALUG] in defence of GNOME 3

[Michael Hill]

Thanks Hugh. I had just sent this response to Lennart, but maybe this
thread is better.

I was first alerted to the initiative when Marcel Gagne posted to say "this
is cool" (he has since backtracked).

A member of the documentation team posted here to say they were coming to
town, and Hugh followed up with more specific location details. I went to
Seneca at York and met volunteers from the States, BC, Germany, the UK, Chile,
and a couple of locals including the maintainer of dbus. After being
involved in the early 2000s downloading and testing GNOME for the Debian
effort, I had turned into a passive user of GNOME 2. Getting involved with
GNOME 3 turned me back into an enthusiastic user. I use assorted GNOME
utilities but mainly Boxes and Firefox.

Mike
