Did you all know that somebody tried to raise a discsussion on the Ayatana Mailing List?
Have a look at the archive https://lists.launchpad.net/ayatana/maillist.html Look for "Hide application windows via launcher" From: Ed Lin, 2011-06-21. There are no real, official comments by Canonical employees. Would be wonderful to hear something about that from the Canonical perspective. Instead they are completely ignoring the whole issue. You would normally expect that somebody would be so mature to reconsider something that was said before. If some developer stated at the beginning of the whole discussion that they do not want the launcher behaviour to be changed, then: so be it. But when these developer hear about the uproar this causes they should try to think again about the whole issue. Instead they are behaving like children that are offended because somebody did not like their idea. Most people here do not opt for a complete change of the DEFAULT behaviour of the launcher. They just want the possibility to configure the launcher behaviour. By the way: the term "to CONFIGURE" seems to be the main issue with the whole changes that Unity brought. Nobody wants to tweak the whole system. But a little bit of freedom and individuality should be possible. Let me quote something from Wikipedia A person with Ubuntu is open and available to others, affirming of others, does not feel threatened that others are able and good, for he or she has a proper self-assurance that comes from knowing that he or she belongs in a greater whole and is diminished when others are humiliated or diminished, when others are tortured or oppressed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/733349 Title: Minimize Application's Windows upon clicking its Launcher Icon To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/733349/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
