Notes during the session :
GTK3 :
- Big parts of the desktop will probably not be migrated for 12.04 : file-manager, panel, browser
=> Keep GTK2, and try to work on some applications for future switch
Theme:
- The new theme should be more lightweight than the one we had on 11.10
Other items:
- Try to do our best to improve the situation
