Business IT Open Source GNOME finally pays some attention to users
The GNOME Desktop project has decided to offer users a set of extensions so that they can revert their desktops back to the style of GNOME 2.0.
The decision comes after much dissatisfaction was expressed by users of the 3.0 release, with many moving to other desktop environments like XFCE and LXDE.
GNOME 3.0 was released last year and there has been a stream of complaints about the change, especially about the lack of options to tweak things to users' liking.
The project says it has not decided how to offer this functionality.
