Seriously folks

Hey,

Times to times I feel exactly like that about some new "unfeatures" of
GNOME.

To be honest, when I see more people complaining about this problems that I
see all the time (because I talk with end users every single day) I feel a
little better because I am not alone.

So, I know what is the problem on Nautilus, and it is very simple to
explain so I will explain:

1. William Jon McCann <jmccann at redhat.com> just remove from Nautilus
everything he thinks is "not useful", "ugly" or "bad designed".
2. Lots of people complain for every feature this Fˆˆ%$ guy from Redhat
remove from our loved file manager.
3. Cosimo Cecchi just ignore every complain and aprove William's patches
(if you can call patch this tons of lines removed from nautilus)
4. Nautilus is now clean, beautiful and with lots of bugs and less powerful
than older versions.

Don't believe me, just a few samples:

* https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=676842
* https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=676858
* https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=676531

Let me know guys if you need more samples :(

So, just send a mail to William.

Sorry guys, but I can't read anything about Nautilus without start to be
really, really angry with what they did.

Cheers,
