I think we need to make some changes with how we're handling the
dropbox installation problem. I need some feedback from people who are
not on the development team.
Dropbox intends to ship a new version this week, which provides a
modified version of Growl 1.2 (not 1.2.1) which does the following:
- Disables check for updates
- Disables all other applications from notifying by default but dropbox
- Stop reinstalling Growl once Growl is removed.
This effectively is what they think they have to do to make the
problem go away until they reimplement a notification system into what
they want.
I don't think this is acceptable, I think it makes the problem worse
Horribly worse.
Why can't Dropbox be a NORMAL product that simply supports Growl?
Why do they have to include ANY type of Growl installer or hack thereof?
They've done the necessaries to make it growl already. Just get rid
of the installer bs and include a simple comment during installation
that Dropbox supports growl!
