Just some thoughts: At least in my opinion, the OS should be something stable that you use for a long period of time. At least people coming from Windows or MacOS/iOS/etc. are not expecting to change the OS every 3-5 months because of some nagging bug (in this case, the bluetooth connection) . An OS is not just a program, you have to re-make all configurations and install everything that one needs for the computer to be a useful and pleasant tool. And some programs are not always updated to the latest version with all dependencies, so some of us have trouble installing them (for instance, I could not install GIMP 2.7.5 on Oneiric; yes, I'm a noob, but I am willing to learn and I have learned a lot in the last year since I switched to Ubuntu (from Windows)).
I am sure I am not the only one thinking this, so maybe at some point in the future, the launching philosophy gets closer to major groups of users' needs. There are some bugs dragged for many versions (for instance Gnome desktop icons overlapping) that once fixed will bring lots of smiles and happiness for most of the users, more than some fancy transparency. Together, letting Gnome developers that we care about it might work. Interaction really matters. //reply to #86: //Fahd, if possible could you test with 12.04 beta 2?
