This is pretty much the point I was making.
why settle with
'PD is open source, PD is better since we know what is going on on a deeper level, and no one needs/wants a rich gui featureset'
thats settling for, as far as I am concerned, half finished software.
if you dont like ubumenu, fine! we have a chance to make something better, to have alternatives, and to dictate where the project goes.
or, we can stop right now.
and btw, the elitist comment was to just incite some responses.
glad it worked and got a discussion going.

These are the points that i consider missing in the first place and these are also the fields that i've been working on for the last several months
- a GUI system that is feature-rich and responsive enough for ergonomic
performance interfaces.
- a presetting and automation system
- dynamic patch management including poly~-like functionality,
controllable by a script language (a la Supercollider)
