Would be really nice to give the user the choice to install KDE!

Subject: [desktop-discuss] Indiana desktop UI spec - early draft

We're starting to document what the default desktop configuration for  
the Indiana 1.0 release should be, and naturally we'd like your  
feedback.

Right now it only covers panel and menu layout; more sections will be  
added over the next couple of days.  However, I'm sure there's plenty  
for you to get your teeth into already, e.g.:

- One panel or two?
- Launch menu or Apps/Places/System menu?
- What applets/launchers on panels by default?
- Icons (e.g. Home folder) on the desktop by default, or empty desktop  
by default?
- GNOME or KD... no, let's not get into that one :)

Fire away...

Cheeri,
Calum.
