The main GNOME project goal is delivering a free desktop to our users.
It is in our DNA, is what we are trying to do all the time. We don't
forget about that, we can't !! ;)

This thread is about how can we set a strategic roadmap. It is more
about innovation vs stability. We are doing pretty well on the stability
side with our six-months cycle schedule. We are even adding some
innovation, but we must find a way to set long term ambicious goals and
set a plan for accomplising in all its extension. GNOME 3 looks like the
best strategic movement since long time ago. I'm excited about it ;). We
must go forward.
