This is lossy. It's easy to miss the note about writing "gnome" in that text box. And it's easy to miss the note that the edit wasn't saved because you didn't write 'gnome'. Even if you do notice it, going back doesn't always give you your edited text. For whatever reason (on my Firefox on Ubuntu Precise), I get the original unedited text when going back to the previous page. It would maybe be safer if it just showed me the edit page again, with a warning there. -- Murray Cumming [email protected] www.murrayc.com www.openismus.com _______________________________________________ gnome-infrastructure mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-infrastructure
