Any system where the list of featured applications never changes, for however many years you have that version of Ubuntu installed, cannot possibly be "the best way to go". The list should change at least once a month, including the best of the applications in the Independent archive. This is a relatively simple problem, requiring four main things: * a way of providing different lists to different Ubuntu versions, so we don't show you software that isn't available on your version; * someone to maintain the lists; * a server to host the lists on; * Ubuntu Software Center to fetch and cache the list from the server every week or so. - -- Matthew Paul Thomas http://mpt.net.nz/ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAkyh6YYACgkQ6PUxNfU6ecoWXQCfebbSRFGY0ZKxoJwwu4/WnNCk xs4An0M2/SgNJ5z1sMc56M+fF24UXTIf =ldPt -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- ubuntu-desktop mailing list ubuntu-desktop@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-desktop
