It’s not just that, but the Gnome approach is like the Microsoft/Apple |
| 7 |
approach, of reducing choice while at the same time forcing one into |
| 8 |
pet project, non-standard software. In this case, X is a very old and |
| 9 |
relatively stable standard throughout the Unix world, and so should |
| 10 |
not be treated as if it were an afterthought, no matter how much one |
| 11 |
loves one’s own ideas. I plan to resist change towards something else |
| 12 |
for as long as I can. |

I view Gentoo not only as flexible but also as rock-solidly |
| 15 |
conservative. So I have hope to be on solid ground for a long time to |
| 16 |
come. It’s one reason I came back to Gentoo after using Exherbo for a |
| 17 |
while -- those guys were following the trends too much for me! |
