Thanks for your comments Mișu. Here are my thoughts with regards to the points you raised.
1. I personally have a hard time reconciling the idea that in order to get Linux fixed, we have to wait for Windows Vista to gain significant market share. I might find this easier to understand if there weren't any standard to follow, but there is. I don't use Windows because things such as diacritics are broken, now if Linux just replicates those issues, then I'm not sure why I should use Linux. Admittedly this isn't related to freedesktop.org, but Ubuntu's bug #1 has the goal of decreasing Windows market. Seems silly to me to have a goal of decreasing Windows market share whilst at the same time waiting for an increase in market share in order to fix other bugs. 2. See Mihai Captă's comments. I agree entirely. Forgetting the issue of what should be the default layout, can we at least agree that we need to have the option available in Ubuntu UI that allows users to select the Romanian keyboard layouts that use the correct diacritics? Both Vista and Mac OS X allow me that luxury. -- Romanian keyboard layout has incorrect characters https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/108057 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
