Re: [orca-list] Fwd: Re: check this out



Hello.

First off, Robert, thank you for forwarding this, I hit the wrong button *coughs*.

Secondly Jonathan, are you sure they aren't going to begiving the users the choice by including it in the log on options? Some individuals don't want to move forward, that's true, but others are ready and willing to embrace the changes in Unity 2D.

And again, now that I see the obvious difference that was originally posted, of you not including Unity 2D, what makes this one any better? It just seems like reinventing the wheel for no other reason other to say I reinvented the wheel.

The difference between the two are Vinux offers their distro using Unity-2d and Sonar is Gnome-classic and Gnome-shell. Of which Vinux doesn't offer.

Hello, Jason.

I am forwarding your message (below) to the Orca List so that you may get a better answer. I have not gotten to try Sonar out just yet.

Take care.
