Gnome conference - breaking new ground, starting from Istanbul (Heise)

Heise reports
from GUADEC. "Gnome co-founder Frederico Mena-Quintero
concentrated on the traditional document-centred desktop. Whilst users have
no problems with emails, chat or music, they often have trouble finding
their documents. Rather than a folder view, he espouses a journal, which
shows documents sorted chronologically. According to Mena-Quintero, the
idea is nothing new, but with a sensible GUI and in tandem with functions
such as tags, it could offer significant improvements for users."
