#OpenSource Desktops, for example #GNOME, need to do #innovation (again?)! What was the last thing from GNOME that was truly innovative and had a significant impact (also outside open source)?
We are just running behind the big corporations and their ideas. Having new ideas is not hard. It doesn't need to cost a lot of money to implement them. It mostly just needs the will to experiment and try out new things.
But also for that we need quick processes to get such ideas finished and released.
