Public bug reported:

A description of the proposed changes, with sufficient detail to
estimate their potential impact on the distribution:

Changing the default wallpaper from the existing Groovy Gorilla
illustration to the Raspberry Pi specific one with the Raspberry in his
sunglasses.

"We'll basically need to revert https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source
/ubuntu-settings/20.10.2 and https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source
/ubuntu-wallpapers/20.10.2-0ubuntu1 and update the warty-final-
ubuntu.png"

A rationale for the exception, explaining the benefit of the change:

The benefit is to pay homage to the work various teams have been doing
with the Raspberry Pi foundation and to their product. It's a way to
signal our commitment to making their platform great and deepen our
relationship with the Pi foundation.


Any additional information which would be helpful in considering the decision

The concerns people have are of product placement and forcing something
onto peoples machines. There are several arguments against this, the
option to change to the default easily, that there is not direct link to
Raspberry Pi anything and its quite subtle. But ultimately the reason is
we want to make a splash with the Raspberry Pi and arm in general and
this is a very good way to do it.
