Cons: 1. It shows off non-default applications. 2. Some of the applications aren't highlighted long enough. 3. It seems disorganised. There's isn't a flow in what is being shown. Pros: 1. It's peppy, brief and conveys all of elementary's buzzwords. 2. The song is excellent (is

2012-08-29 Thread satch...@gmail.com
I think the messaging menu has outlasted its usefulness. Ubuntu has crammed too many things in it, and the urgent response demanded by chat is very different from the simple notification of new email (leading to the envelope being blue permanently). It's also very hard to hit the button; I often

I agree with Daniel on all counts. It will sound desperate. However, a lot of accusations are inevitably going to be levelled at elementary, especially as it gets bigger, and a friendly Journal posts on how people build on others' work, standing on the shoulders of giants, etc etc will make

A superb idea. There's no need to include menus where none are needed, especially for simple applications like Eidete. I do think that the context menus in the dock can be pruned as well. There's no need for window controls in the dock, and some simple menu items could be included without making

What is happening on the Marlin front? It's still horribly unstable. Are those bugs going to be squashed for Luna? Is the team forking Marlin or continuing the project? Will the old PPA still be in use? On 6 May 2012 01:15, David Gomes da...@elementaryos.org wrote: Hello there everyone,

This will definitely hurt the Luna release. Marlin is still unstable (seriously, pressing an arrow key in an empty folder causes it to crash), and yet it's essential that Marlin is shipped. Somebody needs to work on getting it into a stable state, even if it won't be very feature-rich (it doesn't

I wholeheartedly agree with Christian. Given that elementary users may install other applications, and those on other distros may install elementary applications. It wouldn't work in either case to name everything Pantheon xyz. Midori is called Midori Web Browser. The name makes it simultaneously
