No, they didn't have to keep the code to themselves.
not the code but a release called "GA"
That is Open Source, and that is how the software is developed and
bug reports gathered.
well, but if the software is not ready for endusers it should
not released to them as default UI
3rd party developers have been provided with all the necessary tools
and the codebase
to create what users would further desire.
does not help much if you release a software unusable for
your current userbase but hey it supports a tablet
The project source code repository, the mailing lists and the
bugzilla were
functional 24/7. Where have you all been when you saw it was going to hurt you?
it does not hurt me because i was never a gnome user but it hurts me to
see that my favourite distribution is packing such a thing as default
desktop without any thoughts at the current user base
and do not come with "but gnome2 is still not developed any more"
RHEL6/CentOS6 is shipping it for years!
