Re: Gnome objectives

I have a reply to DE not to offer impossible suggestions, and what he provides here are impossible and often not good for the devs to read methinks. As noted below, discussion is fine, but I think _not_ with unrealistic scenarios like suggesting to developers to switch to QT and join with the KDE team! :)  

@DE
I am actually using the jhbuild version, and often tweaking gnome-shell/install/share/gnome-shell/theme/* graphics to change the theme/colors manually and it's fun. I've found alt-tab grouping as a nice feature where you can find all windows of all workspaces at the same time where you cannot do this in classic 2.x. While I have sympathy with you over switching windows, the real benefit about having an overview is that if you have so many apps running most of them are minimized because you need to focus only on one window at the same time and with the classic taskbar, it becomes difficult to find the right app to switch into. But that would change.
Take a look:  https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=607338

Discussions on GNOME shell are fine. Disagreeing is fine as well.

That said, please be respectful towards the gnome shell developers. This
stop energy is not constructive. Furthermore, it is off topic as the
goal of gnome-shell mailing list is to develop gnome shell.

See http://live.gnome.org/CodeOfConduct for more guidelines.

+1 (discussion is fine, but follow code of conduct, no stop energy)
