For mine I'd really only want to see the developers having access to upload to the PPA anyway, especially now we're growing in size with the nature of becoming official. Moderating the lubuntu-desktop group still means there are hundreds of people able to upload to the PPA unless I don't understand Launchpad teams properly (which is also highly likely). -- Regards, Jared Norris JP(Qual) BBehSc(Psych) https://wiki.ubuntu.com/JaredNorris ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop Post to : lubuntu-desktop@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

[Lubuntu-desktop] Some considerations about the Precise theme
Hi, i've got some consideration about the future Precise theme for Lubuntu. Lubuntu should have a most professional and clean look as possible, so: 1 - i like a lot the default light grey panel in 10.04 and 10.10, and i think is a good compromise between style and professionality: 2 - we should use a monochrome logo for the menu (+1 close to ubuntu), suggestion: 3 - i like the default openbox theme in Oneiric, but the borders of the windows should be grey, not black. suggestion RGB: 3c3c3c Stephen Smally ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop Post to : lubuntu-desktop@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

Stop reading my mind! :D Well, I don't like to repeat myself, and one black (and polemic) dark taskbar is enough. So yes, we're going that way.

Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] logo
HI Rafael, cool. Do you have a draft of the mockup? The current site is based on the Ubuntu Drupal theme. It seems this project is not so active anymore and there are better theme options. Currently, we have a few people who have admin access and can change things. It seems though that the theme has several bugs and every time someone changes something there are broken links or images do not work. It is a quite boring task to fix that again and again. So, I want to throw the theme over board and implement a completely new theme: light, fast and clearly integrated. Looking forward to receive your ideas for the mockup. - Mario 2011/11/18 神癒礁湖 (Rafael Laguna) rafaellag...@gmail.com ** That's right, this is the right place for discussions about the distro.
