This is indeed crazy talk. Ubuntu (8 years old), the most popular desktop variant of GNOME, has, what, 5% projected by end of this year? So now GnomeOS, which will compete directly with Ubuntu/Canonical and will somehow get to 20% in 7.5 years? With no OEM experience, no sales experience, no marketing experience, no independent hardware experience?
Now, we all know that Gnome is essentially a Red Hat project without Red Hat "owning" it. Even so, Red Hat would need to put in some serious horsepower to make this happen. And to this point, Red Hat has now shown the wherewithal to get hardware, touch, mobile and even desktop (UX) at all. This would massively have to change in the RH corporate culture and approach to be at all successful.
Sure, have goals, make plans, but don't sit there and tell me you'll get hockey stick curve adoption extrapolated singular data points.
