I think this is an very important point because otherwise it
could make GNOME designers more careful before posting
a design to the wiki because they know that the design will
be featured as "done" on a news site the next day. After all
the wiki are a workspace (although public).

Obviously to refer the "Text Selection" was a mistake of me, as there weren't any discussion in Design page. It would be nice 

if you *always* had some initial notes in every page. Gnome gets a lot of attention lately and I think that many people are 

visiting your wikis and post about them.

Also very important.

Maybe I consider what is obvious to me, it is obvious also to the others. Saying that something is just an early design, 

I mean "a design that won't arrive in Gnome for sure, or the next day, or as it is".I ll try to be more cautious and

not making an "alpha" seems as "stable".

Thank you
