The UI freeze date has already passed so we can't really visually change anything at this point. Secondly, no UI changes has ever happened from the mailing list. Open up a bug, and then post your mockups there. Bring your mockups to the design mailing list as well. More importantly, read the design document and see if your mockups fit into their design philosophy. These things are an iterative process and requires patience, and being receptive to critiques. So if you want to target for 3.2 then I would start after the release. Right now it is crunch time and gnome-shell guys are working on getting the show stopper bugs fixed, improving stability and speed. sri > On 03/07/2011 07:56 AM, Sean Brady wrote: > > Hello folks, another suggestion: Move the workspace tiles to the left side, > and the application launcher (cant remember what we are calling that thing > right now, but you know what I am talking about) to the right side, just > below the search box to where the workspace tiles are now. > > I think that this makes sense because many of us use the workspace tiles > much more than the application launcher as we work, even more so now that we > are minimizing minimize.
