The new icon is very deceiving, making me think I have my WiFi On, but with no signal. I rather have the old icon back.

If we don't want to use the normal icon please consider something more obvious like the bars icon with a slash through it? Right, testing has shown that we needed to work on this some more. I've now added a red box with a white X in it to denote the problem. Test it, once it is sponsored in main for Jaunty. -- Ken -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
Re: New Theme every LTS release

What i mean is, every release, we see beautiful mockups, but nothing ever comes of it. I think something needs to change so that these mockups have a chance of getting worked on. If not this, i think something should be done differently to address this problem-- it doesn't matter what. My idea is simply that after every LTS release, a mockup is voted on to work on for the next LTS release, giving plenty of time to work on it. Is this reasonable? Would this work? Shortly before 8.04 (Hardy Heron) it was decided that the LTS release is the final release in an artwork cycle, exactly as you suggest. For 8.10 (Intrepid Ibex) we have been reviewing new themes (the dark theme, and so far 3 community themes). We have picked these themes for inclusion due to their quality and popularity. Although we will not vote on the matter the interests of users are definitely taken into account. I've set up a PPA with the themes in question (https://launchpad.net/~kwwii/+archive) so that everyone can test them without having to compile anything themselves. Our next step is to include these in the next Intrepid Ibex alpha so keep any eye out for them there if you aren't interested or don't have the time to check them out via the PPA I mentioned.
