Hi :) I would favour a simple traffic light type logo endorsing products or services. An expert in hardware issues (particularly printers) pointed out (in a DistroWatch article) that the Free Software Foundation already has a 5 lights system which is slightly flawed but could be re-arranged. I prefer Red (or none) for a total lack of support, Amber or Orange for reasonable support but perhaps not all features working flawlessly and Green for awesome support. I think 5 categories makes it slightly complicated but most people in the world have probably seen traffic-lights in movies or something. Keeping (or making) It Simple Has to be a high priority to beat this bug. Perhaps we could complicate it to fit in with FSF by having 2 shades of Amber and 2 of Green but inevitably there is going to be some variation in colour anyway so i can't really see that plan working. Basic traffic lights is simplest? Regards from Tom :)
PS it seems that different LoCo teams do have different levels of activity but usually if you can catch someones attention then they could probably help even if there is no official route of getting the required info from them. It's a good argument for joining the LoCo Team and getting info out of people's heads and onto accessible websites -- Microsoft has a majority market share https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu 4 dz, which is a direct subscriber.

This is a bug, which Ubuntu is designed to fix. Non-free software is holding back innovation in the IT industry, restricting access to IT to a small part of the world's population and limiting the ability of software developers to reach their full potential, globally. This bug is widely evident in the PC industry. Steps to repeat: 1. Visit a local PC store. What happens: 2. Observe that a majority of PCs for sale have non-free software pre-installed. 3. Observe very few PCs with Ubuntu and free software pre-installed. What should happen: 1. A majority of the PCs for sale should include only free software like Ubuntu. 2. Ubuntu should be marketed in a way such that its amazing features and benefits would be apparent and known by all. 3. The system shall become more and more user friendly as time passes. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~algeriatul Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~algeriatul More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
