Re: Fwd: Good day - re: new direction for Cinnarch



I suppose then, if I put on my "Hello, I am a new user potentially interested in GNOME" hat, I would arrive at the Getting GNOME page, and then maybe click around a bit, and figure out that there is no "really easy" way to get the latest and greatest GNOME 3.8 (that we're all so proud of)  onto my computer.

I know some of the reasons why that is, but I've been around Linux for a while. A new person might wonder why a project tells everyone about something great but then doesn't give an easy way to install it (remember, new user, maybe non-geek).

That was really the reasoning behind my thinking of the "easy to install rolling release with GNOME as default".

In any case, does anyone have any interest in a sort of "nice to point to
rolling release distribution that uses GNOME as default"?
Isn't that what https://www.gnome.org/getting-gnome/ is for?
Indeed. Not every small distribution is on there though. Not totally
sure of the selection criteria to be on that list.

"Make it easy to get GNOME in your computer", basically.
The page can't be endless (as getting-gnome was in the past), so the selection of targets are quite small.
