We can leave the browser topic by now. I think everyone who wants to try out Kubuntu already know how to visit google.com and hit the "GET CHROME " button. We need to concentrate on look&feel. So:
-create a new background for installer, lightdm & splash. -create a user friendly KCM to turn on local sharing. OS X has done this very well. -avatar from webcam/file and wifi connection support in Ubiquity -make user configuration user friendly -finally change the installer slieshow. This didn't change for about 3-4 releases. -add more monochromatic icons for all notification-helpers. Please use existing or talk to Nuno Pinheiro. I will work on artwork, as some of you might know. Please, if you fell good in programing take care of the rest. I think these are most important changes from the new user point view.
