nice if the core developers provided more support, feature stability

and allow them to be built on top of the Gnome stack instead of
forking some of its projects... would be probably too much.
We specifically allowed gnome-panel and the entire fallback mode to be
forked / taken over once we received request for that. See the blogpost
from Vincent Untz and the release email announcements for details. Also,
gnome-main-menu is under the maintainership (@
git.gnome.org) of the
MATE developers.
If only it could be possible to make most of the Gnome devs learn
from
the community feedback instead of giving marvellous talks at
conferences about how much the community is wrong.
Seems you did not attend the talk. Suggest actually watching the video.
Apologies for adding some facts to this discussion :P
