Comment 312 for bug 668415

Yes well there's that, but also how the gnome 3 team had also stopped
listening to users -gnome had a perfectly usable desktop - the project
succeeded...I guess they must've got bored..what is Ubuntu to do as a
downstream consumer of the technology? After using Windows 8 I can see why
ubuntu team chose unity - my only real complaint with it is that every time
they come out with a new release I have to hold my breath and see if any of
my hardware support stops working. That is why I am on mint xfce now, I
don't really NEED a compositing window manager in order to do word
processing and answer Email and the first thing I do after installing
ubuntu is install restricted extras anyway.

I am curious to try Enlightenment though, supposedly with new release they
have developed their own compositing engine independent of OpenGL support.
