Hi,

I have some comments/suggestions about the current gnome desktop in Fedora. (Feel free to burn the comments/suggestions in flames ;-) )

* I find the standard gnome panel at the bottom of the screen very clunky, because it fills up a large part of the screen. (I know I can auto hide it or make it smaller.) I find smaller panel (or 2 panels) like they use in ximian desktop See: http://www.ximian.com/images/screenshots/desktop/browsing-windows-network.pn... looking much more modern

* I find the menus Preferences, System Settings and System tools quite confusing. They contain many similar menu items and if you would make a quiz show in which of the three a certain setting should be set, I think the average user would not do that well. I'd like to suggest to have one "Configuration" (or whatever what you want to call it) menu, where you have two sections: user preferences (which sets options for the current user that is logged in) and system preferences (for setting system wide settings for which you need to be or become root)
