Traditionally, original versions of ROSA Desktop operating system are provided with KDE desktop
environment which includes a lot of design modifications and functionality enhancements. A
nice-looking ROSA theme and a set of brand-name applications highly integrated with KDE (TimeFrame,
StackFolder, RocketBar, KLook, KDM) have already become recognizable ROSA features and made ROSA
familiar to Linux users.

However, some ROSA users prefer another desktop environment – GNOME. This DE suggests its own
approach to graphical environment and wider possibilities of integration with existing IT
infrastructure. ROSA community members leaded by Denis Koryavov and Arkady Shane have prepared a
new version of ROSA Desktop Fresh 2012 operating system with GNOME desktop environment. 

Vladimir Rubanov, Vice President of Engineering and Deputy CEO of ROSA, supports community
initiatives on creating new variations of ROSA Desktop Fresh 2012 operating system. According to
Rubanov, a question is currently being discussed of giving an official status to these variations.
It is possible that developers will get more resources to test their products and users will be
provided with technical support from ROSA.
