@Jefspa Is anyone a "customer" in the literal sense of money exchanging hands? No, not to my knowledge. I guess I could have said "user", "customer" "end-user", or "if A creates B and C uses it...." ......it's all really the same thing in the end. Rather than argue semantics, let's focus on the points I made.
Yes, that would be actually ironic "if later it becomes known that these design changes were in fact prompted in part by paying customers such as OEM partners over the concerns of non-paying customers." This is diverting off-topic, but you bring up a point, so I'll respond to it.... Microsoft and Yahoo partnered up with each other to form bing; and now Canonical us changing the default search engine to Yahoo! because of financial reasons. I get it. They need to make money to provide Ubuntu for free. I have ZERO problem with them doing that because you can easily change your default homepage, search engine, etc; but now if it goes deeper than that, such as changes to the kernel, UI, we start seeing ads popping up, I think that is a different animal. There isn't a black and white absolute on what is acceptable and what is not, except as each person decides for themselves what that is for them. Again, off-topic, I apologize. I don't want to derail this, but you DO and DID bring up a valid, possible point. There are most certainly things going on behind the scenes of which we are not fully aware. Perhaps this is why the uber-secret mystical "features" of 10.10 have not (or cannot legally be) stated publicly...... or maybe it's just some twist on E.E.E. or F.U.D. I don't know. @scholli Yes, we disagree..... and that's ok. I welcome insights from all, even if I don't agree with them. I do think the idea of making the buttons in the current order on the right-hand side like they currently are; and then have everything theme-driven with the option to change to left (with the new button order) or to leave it "as is" in the current order and location on the right; is really the best way to do things. gconf, etc are just hacks that will break the UI. -- [Master] Window Control buttons: position/order/alignment https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/532633 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
