There is more than one issue with Unity, absolutely, and I probably should have phrased it this way - the community engagement issue is going to come to a head over the launcher. It's likely to be the first flaw a new user encounters in Unity, and certainly generates more forum posts than any of Unity's other quirks.
The difference between Linux and commercial operating systems is that Linux is community-driven, and while Mark makes a good point about dispersed efforts hurting development, the community has the ultimate decision-making power. In this case, it's Canonical's job to lay out a vision; it's the community's job to fill in the details. It's only a matter of time before the community patches in a movable dock. The demand is there, and the implementation can be done by one person. The question in my mind is how Canonical will respond to that patch - will they give preference to their design or to the community's wishes? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/882274 Title: Community engagement is broken To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/882274/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
