Description Otto Sá 2013-01-03 00:09:58 CET
Many user are requesting for cinnamon thus I find it out at https://www.zarb.org/pipermail/mageia-dev/2012-January/010959.html
But I did not find it out at Mageia Bugzilla. Thus, I would like to open it here for the cauldron. If I havent search it all right, please only reopen it urgently.

Quotation:

"Cinnamon is a fork of Gnome-Shell with the look & feel &
workflow of Gnome2, developed and maintained by Clement Lefebvre
"Clem" from Linux-Mint.

At the moment, already rpms and debs for other distributions like Ubuntu,
Fedora, Arch and OpenSuse are built: 
http://cinnamon.linuxmint.com/?page_id=61

In my opinion, Cinnamon will be a sustainable alternative for 
ex-Gnome2-users,
who don't like the "smartphone-look" of Gnome3

So I propose to implement Cinnamon also in Mageia as a third "heavy" DE 
next to
KDE4 and Gnome3

Regards,
Bernd".
I appreciate the cinnamon with the Mageia. Thanks a lot.Happy new year for Mageia all over the world.
Cheers.
