Ahh, this is all about GNOME 3. It's very unfair to describe the
actions/attitude of GNOME developers at that of all Fedora developers.
Yes, the KDE spin has been around for a long time and I see there are
now XFCE and LXDE spins.
GNOME 3 is, to say the least, controversial. Ubuntu Unity hasn't had a
uniformly great reception either. GNOME 3 is still in its first
release, and it'll be interesting to see how it develops.
3.2 is out "September/October 2011"
(

while the "new features and enhancements" listed don't resemble the
problems people have had we might hope some of the issues will have
been addressed.
