I've also tested it (lightly) on 3 machines running Joyride ~2170.

 Hmmm, not convinced Record-55 is working well enough yet (Joyride-2174),
 unless it's just failing on my B4 hardware. I get everything from a black
 feed, to a green/purple stripy feed. Not managed to actually record anything
 with it yet. Doesn't seem to help launching Record first after a reboot and
 with no other activities (think that was one of the open bugs).

just did that (boot then launch record) and it worked alright for me
(on a MP machine).

rather than by default having nothing shown, by default have every

 The new Home View in 8.2.0 will have three available styles. We need to
 pick one to default on first upgrade or install.

 Choices are:

You should never have nothing in the ring by default. If you
reproduced such a case, it's a bug and it should be reported.

the frame, didn't it? at least it'S not there in my sugar jhbuild env.

I accidentally discovered the fact that if one clicks on the
three-blocks/other-than-the-list icon in the Home/Favorites/old-ring
view, one gets to choose which layout one wants.  I found that after I
manually edited ~/.sugar/default/config to say:

[Shell]
favoriteslayout = ring-layout

...of course, by Sod's law.  Perhaps this is what Greg's referring to.

 I've transcribed your poll to olpc-sur, I'll post again with the results
 from there :)

 From Rosamel Ramírez, a teacher in Durazno, Uruguay:

 Me gusta el diseño de distribución circular, es menos estructurado que el
 tercero, pero no tan disperso como el primero

 I like the circular distribution design, it's less structured than the third
 one, but not as disperse as the first.
