Performance Love Day

GNOME
GNOME

On Sunday, October 30th, from 14:00 UTC until I fall asleep on the
keyboard, there will be a new GNOME Love Day, this time focused on GNOME
performance.

GNOME love day is a project to try to get developers become GNOME
hackers. There are lot of developers around who want to get involved
into GNOME development but they don't know how to do it. The idea of
GNOME love day is to get these developers joining #gnome-love on
irc.gnome.org as well as some current GNOME hackers, all together.

This love day will target performance: profiling applications, finding
bottle-necks and regressions, fixing filed bugs.

If you want to help making GNOME faster, go to the wiki page, pick a
task and join the #gnome-love channel on Sunday. But remember: every
day is a good day for giving GNOME some love.

Hm, I mostly agree with you.

Hm, I mostly agree with you. Really patch review takes unacceptable time in GNOME. It's obvious that another development model should wake up. But fork isn't a solution from any point of view, you should understand it.

My opinion is that the ISV orientation made all troubles pointed above. Too much commercial interest will kill GNOME.

So the main quesion is: how should we develop programming environment (GNOME is not an environment for a long time) to bring really beautiful system.
