Indeed. So let's kick it off with where we stand right now and that's (afaik, correct me if I'm wrong) no notification icon anymore and an update-manager window that pops up once-a-week (in absence of critical updates) and interrupts me. Is this understanding correct? I'm not sure I see how popping up windows in front of what users are actively working on is good UI design. I have caught wind that this popping up of windows might somehow be molded into "morphing windows" or somesuch thing, that tbh, I don't understand. Am I off base yet/still? I guess the question is then, if windows popping up and disturbing one's workflow is not the final UI design in all of this, will the final design be done before Jaunty is GA? And if not, then why start exposing users to this new way of doing things while it is still ugly, disruptive and not complete state? b. -- [Jaunty] Update Notifier icon would provide useful status information https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/332945 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
