Snipping the RA menu item will not lead to fixing the menu system for real users - that responsibility ends up coming down to the distribution. It certainly won't lead to fixing the root problem - that is, getting rid of the menu model entirely. I would accept this rationale for a fairly large change with obvious follow-through benefits for all of our users (not just the "community users" you've pointed out here). I can't accept it for a small, anal retentive change that has no direct benefits whatsoever. It's nitpicking, not moving forward. - Jeff -- UbuntuDownUnder: April 25th-30th http://www.ubuntu.com/ For a list of reasons why technology has failed to improve our lives, please press 3. _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
