My response was to the general idea of better approach to managing projects that's mentioned in the opening post, I don't give two fucks about GNOME.
If you really want to go there, it's impossible to tell what can be considered "going downhill" for a project of this age — I don't think that it has anything in common at all with original GNOME of GTK 1.x days: neither in terms of codebase, nor in terms of people involved — and I'm not even in the loop enough to tell.
But if you want my opinion, it's still better than Qt clusterfuck that is KDE — because anything is better than that vomit spit that is Qt. They'd never be able to break GTK to the point when it becomes worse than Qt to me. If Qt was the only framework in existence for creating GUIs, I won't use GUIs at all — I hate it with passion since its Trolltech days :marseyraging:
But again, this has nothing to do with managing software projects :marseyshrug:
