Deployment of Gnome is going to be a big problem in my understanding. Fedora is using Gnome 3.4 till january when they release Fedora 18. Ubuntu has switched to stable versions of Gnome. Only bleeding edge distos like Arch are using latest versions. This in my sense will lead to fragmentation of Gnome - different distros running different versions of Gnome.
- gizmo686 14y agoYou always have different distributions running different versions of everything. Each software project makes progress on their own, then distributions periodicly take the newest stable version of stuff, make sure things work together and make a new release. If you want cutting edge software, use a cutting edge distro.
- keithpeter 14y agoI welcome the development of a classic mode regardless of how it is implemented, but I think the use of extensions makes a lot of sense. Red Hat Enterprise 7 desktops will be based on Fedora 18 I understand, and I gather that release has Gnome 3.6 and therefore the fall-back session as currently provided, i.e. not an extension.
