GNOME

Submission + - Vista Menu (with Logo) for GNOME

SMOKEING writes: "A recent entry on gnomefiles.org offers users of GNOME a "Vista-like Start Menu". Given the overwhelming diversity of UI customizations, GTK and KDE themes, and the like sporting various degrees of likeness to Aero or Aqua, with whole Windows-esque distros like Linspire still finding their raison d'être, the project in question does ultimately touch to the quick.

In light of occasional growl of discontent voiced about GNOME's "interoperability" policies, including OOXML non-rejection, and Linus's heart-felt "Just tell people to use KDE", and even despite the fact that the author himself is probably not affiliated with GNOME at all, this development begs the question: How far a never-standardized UI on the Linux desktop can go courting proprietary interface designs?"
