Just my 2 cents for this discussion: while developing Canola2 (the most downloaded and used media player for maemo platforms) we had this forum where users could talk with us, etc.. We couldn't use IRC or mailing lists because this users were _really_ "average Joe" users. In this forum they used to complain about some bits and put wishes there and a lot of times we just didn't hear them because it was against "project vision" or because we thought it was not a good idea. In the end we really learned that the user don't know what he wants :). He thinks that he knows but he doesn't. That's why I think Aaron's and also Celeste's opinions are much more important on this subject than user's. Now comes the point sebas talked about: they diverged and even at this point we have to make a decision. sebas just chose one direction that is go with the maintainer's pov and it's not wrong (just as it would not be wrong to take celeste's opinion as she is the usability expert). Please guys, let's not make a storm in a cup of water: let's choose one behavior and see if users opens too many bugs for it and we fix it in the next versions. Don't fight with each other for a plasmoid's feature :) Cheers, -------------------------------------------------------------- Artur Duque de Souza OpenBossa Research Labs INdT - Instituto Nokia de Tecnologia -------------------------------------------------------------- Blog: http://labs.morpheuz.eng.br/blog/ GPG: 0xDBEEAAC3 @ wwwkeys.pgp.net --------------------------------------------------------------
