Not to hijack the thread, but I've been convinced for a *long* time that
Miguel de Icasca (sp?) suffers from severe Microsoft envy. Even before
he went Mono, the Gnome environment setup was the nastiest thing
invented since the Windows Registry.

And at least the Windows Registry stuff tends to be better documented!

I don't blame Novell, I blame Miguel.
