Why not ask the users? that is not really the choice. As I said the lightweightness issue is mostly a red herring in the cases of apps people have been changing. Only for the absolutely broken apps did we introduce gnome counterparts, the others have gnome in the name but are gtk only (hello Jerome, please run an ldd once in a while before coming up with bits of wisdom along the lines of 'things have gnome in their names therefore they are to be used in gnome') Jani</blockquote><div> if this keeps going on like this, there will be a forking in xubuntu-land... which is bad as there are way too few people developing xubuntu already i see a lot of people (a lot in this case means the majority from the posts i have read on this list) wanting back lightweight programs... and i see a few (or one) who wants to go all out with xUBUNTU too bad... very sad... but that is what i see </div> </div>
