Re: push back on negative articles

Hello Sri, Brett,

Calling trash an article (doesn't matter if it is or isn't) will lead to negative critics back to you.  

Instead I propose to make each month (or every 2 or 3) a "positive" press release about the future of gnome, what happened in the past month,

what decisions are made etc etc and always discuss the controversial features and say yes we know there are problems, but etc etc

I would like to see a press release like (http://afaikblog.wordpress.com/2012/08/07/gnome-os/) to coming signed by the Gnome Team or

Gnome Foundation, or Gnome People instead just from a single developer. 

That would be posted in all major blogs, and so people will get positive feedback about Gnome. There are many other pros such as a better communication

between users and foundation and that you show that you care. This is what they do big game authors. It works great.

    

I really would like to see such thing from Gnome. Every Month, or Two :)

Thank you

- alex

Agreed - that article was complete and utter sensationalistic garbage.

GNOME 3 doesn't seem to be "failing" on my desktop.
