GNOME Art Awards

Bugzilla is no place to post a general GNOME issue. Clearly, my point is that the community has lost sight of a quick desktop in favor of one that looks good in screenshots.

And by posting anonymously, you have further reinforced my conviction that few in the community seem to genuinely care any more about creating a desktop that is both beautiful *and* capable of being used in developing countries, on less expensive hardware.

Finally, where else is there to post and read public discussions about community concerns? GNOME is a large web of developers, mailing lists and corporations, but this site is about the only place to read open dicussion regarding the project's general direction. There is quite a bit of elitism that goes on behind the scenes, but I'd like to think that there is a general populous of users that matter, even if there not all posing in an IRC channel in the middle of the night.
