Absolutely. I suggest you chat with the documentation team on their mailing list (https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-doc), or on IRC (#ubuntu-doc on irc.freenode.net). They may already have something cooking, and if they don't I'm sure they will appreciate the help. > Howabout autostarting the "Welcome" page (within "New to ubuntu?") for > first time logins? That discussion has popped up a few times. Never seems to reach a particular agreement. I think one concern was that Yelp was very slow, so with Yelp 3 in this release (which uses Webkit and has been touched up significantly) there will be more positives for doing it. Another worry is it could look too noisy, so there's definitely some work to be done implementing that in a way people can agree with. Again, probably the best people to talk to are the docs team. I have a hunch that idea really just needs somebody to commit to it and all the pieces will come together ;) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubiquity Slideshow, which is subscribed to ubiquity-slideshow-ubuntu in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/687670 Title: [Natty] Add a ubiquity slide for GDM Session choosing.

I have never used bazaar before, or created a patch, but i will give this a go, support and guidance would be greatly appreciated (as would someone taking over ;) lol) _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubiquity-slideshow Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubiquity-slideshow More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
