@Tal Liron I agree with you. Forking is not really a good solution to address such kind of problems. In this case simply because of the fact, that it is not official canonical software and therefore not part of the canonical maintained packages. Anyhow it was a matter of time until someone decides to do his hown thing to get more flexibility.
And of course i don't understand the standpoint of Mark Shuttleworth - may be because a lack of information: He talks about broader design goals. Well... They are not in general affected if you permit users to move the launcher at least from the left to the right. On the other side celebrating forks seems to be a bit strange in that case: There's a strategy behind Unity and a roadmap too - so why risking that the world say's no the official unity switching to a fork - no matter how good it is? That could have negative impact on the design goals as well as on the Unity strategy at all. I really like Unity but i would love it, if *i* can decide whether the launcher appears on my screen. So much freedom should be possible and part of any design goal. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/668415 Title: Movement of Unity launcher To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/668415/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
