What are your thoughts?
The author raises some good questions about the licensing of the core utils.
I think there is a lot that the author is right about.
However, removing X11 season was a decision of the Gnome Team not the Ubuntu team and I completely respect this.
Yes you can keep shipping it with the X11 optio, but someone has to maintain it. The gnome project has only limited resource so it’s either removed or an unstable mess… removing in this case is always the better option IMHO.
I think the core takeaways from all this is, we (as a community) should definitely no longer recommend Ubuntu as the default distro for newcomer to the Linux world.
