It is not just supporting the code base but being familiar with it in
order to help others (user support) with it.

Personally, I won't be able to. No windows computer to play with. So I
won't vote either way. If we document it (I hope we will) it may make
sense to suggest a more powerful machine CPU wise.

I think that was me. :)

Ok.

Testing of course is the first step in finding out whether it is supportable, 
or whether there are obstacles at all. Like I mentioned during the last
discussion about it, my information was probably way outdated, and many of the
issues might have gone away already. There's nothing to stop you from getting it
included, and start allocating some time on it. The Final Freeze is still months
ahead. :)

Yes, some do say that Ubuntu Studio shouldn't be in it since that it is
very difficult to get some multimedia-specific things to work. However  
I do

believe at least we should give them that option.

Vote whether you want Ubuntu Studio on Wubi in this mailing list.  
Length of

vote: 2 weeks.

I already got the code ready to implement it into Wubi so it just  
depends

on whether you want it or not.


Good work guys. I'll just repeat what I mentioned before; it should be  
enabled
only if people are willing to support it. So I have a suggestion for  
you; add
another question to your poll:"Do you want Studio on Wubi, and if so,  
then are

you willing to support it?"


Best regards,



Yeah, I don't feel we need to vote about this. I did suggest Howard would  
post about it since I remember someone having opposing opinions about it.


We have been getting numerous questions about wubi and the lack of Ubuntu  
Studio support. Seems like many people want it.


I don't have a good idea about what the downsides of Wubi would be. If  
there are any, it would be great to hear them.
Also, we might need to test this. So, perhaps we just implement it, and  
then decide later if it was a good idea or not?

OK let that be the vote question:P Yes the biggest problem is user support.
It involves just 16 lines of code (based on the removed Xubuntu code) to
get Studio to wubi. But do we support that ?

Good work guys. I'll just repeat what I mentioned before; it should be enabled
only if people are willing to support it. So I have a suggestion for you; add
another question to your poll:"Do you want Studio on Wubi, and if so, then are
you willing to support it?"

Should Ubuntu Studio get into Wubi?

2012-11-15 Thread Ho Wan Chan
Someone complained in Launchpad Bug 1070682 (
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntustudio/+bug/1070682) before that Ubuntu
Studio is not an option in the Wubi.

Yes, some do say that Ubuntu Studio shouldn't be in it since that it is
very difficult to get some multimedia-specific things to work. However I do
believe at least we should give them that option.

Vote whether you want Ubuntu Studio on Wubi in this mailing list. Length of
vote: 2 weeks.

I already got the code ready to implement it into Wubi so it just depends
on whether you want it or not.
