GNOME 3 To Support a "Classic" Mode, of Sorts 197
An anonymous reader writes "LWN.net is reporting that GNOME developer Matthias Clasen has announced that, with the upcoming demise of 'fallback mode,' the project will support a set of official GNOME Shell extensions to provide a more "classic" experience. 'And while we certainly hope that many users will find the new ways comfortable and refreshing after a short learning phase, we should not fault people who prefer the old way. After all, these features were a selling point of GNOME 2 for ten years!'"

Gimp and a bunch of other projects seem to be headed the same way
Hint: There's a lot of developers that do work on both projects. Now some of them have migrated to Libreoffice. Expect more UI carnage to come.
Please no ... not the fucking ribbon

Gnome should have learned how to play chess. They are out of moves.

Your movie idea is odd, but I would still prefer watching it to using GNOME3.
