Worried......

["Eddie G. O'Connor Jr." <LinuxGuy Mail com>]

I don't know if this is the proper place to voice my "concerns"....but I 
just recently read an article about Gnome, and well......first let me 
state that I am a FIRM believer in what you all are doing! I have been 
using Gnome on my Linux (Fedora & OpenSuSe!) and I love EVERYTHING about 
it! It's to the point where I've gotten....my younger brother (he's 
37.....I'm 41!)...my older sister....my son.....his mother..(my 
ex-wife!)....my cousin..and about 4 other people using some version of 
Linux with Gnome on it. I'm "worried" because I just read an article on 
ZDNet....that stated that it might become possible that CINNAMON would 
become the default desktop for Fedora.....I hope and pray this doesn't 
happen! I am a strong supporter of the innovative and ingenious ideas 
that seem to literally OOZE from the minds of your developers, and I 
would hate to have to go in search of a new desktop environment! 
Sure....there are those who have absolutely NOTHING nice to say about 
the latest iteration of Gnome, but they are few and far between...I have 
been using Linux for about four or five years now, and just about 
EVERYONE whom I've spoken to?...LOVES Gnome! If the possibility exists 
that you might include Cinnamon as an option for Fedora or any of the 
other "Gnome-centric" distros.....please make it a SECONDARY 
option....Gnome is the best out there...in ALL it's versions! It's 
new......it's "different".....it's "not the same old thing"....but above 
all else? It's a "religion" to some....and it just wouldn't be right to 
take their "god" from them! Well....I guess I've ranted on long enough, 
I just didn't want to see the BEST desktop I've EVER used to go the way 
of the dinosaur all because of a few whiny, ignorant, and totally 
"spoiled" people!

P.S. Here's the actual article that I got this info from, (GOD I hope 
it's just a rumor and NOTHING more!)
