Ready to be published? LXer is read by around 350,000 individuals each month, and is an excellent place for you to publish your ideas, thoughts, reviews, complaints, etc. Do you have something to say to the Linux community?
Are you experienced? The other day I wrote The Linux Desktop Mess ~ Linux Advocates and had a few interesting comments. Some of the comments were Pavlovian and entirely missed the point of my story, as if I am disregarding open source choice by suggesting standardization. Quite the opposite. I cherish choice as much as anyone else. The point of the story, missed by some, is that programmers follow standards and protocols all the time, some are elective and some are mandatory.
Quoting:If the distribution doesn't want to be a "linux-desktop" then fine, it can do whatever it likes how it likes it.
Isn't that exactly what the status is now? It sure looks like it to me since every Distro, DE, and application developer has the full freedom and control to do whatever pleases them.
