Re: [12.04] Tracking progress (was: Re: [Lubuntu 12.04] My Suggestions)

 

I just wanted to drop a brief comment about this statement:

"Please don't make extra work for our scarce and overworked developers :)"

I've honestly wondered about that for some time now. While I'm no dev by any stretch of the imagination I have been involved in Ubuntu iso-testing for well over 3 years, and recently the number of "suggestions" regarding Lubuntu here at the mailing list have been almost overwhelming.

How much time has this taken away from fixing actual bugs or implementing meaningful change?

While it's great to have someone new and energetic join the team it's also important for the new members to give the actual devs time to deal with the basic tasks of maintaining the project ;^) 

I hope that doesn't sound too harsh. As always thanks to everyone for everything they do,

Lance

This mailing list is more likely to be seen and responded to by Lubuntu
developers than forum threads, IMO.

> If there is any kind of updates about 12.04, please let me know. Thanks!


Please don't make extra work for our scarce and overworked developers :)

Instead, if you are interested in tracking progress towards Lubuntu
12.04, please login to the wiki and read the wiki page at

  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/Developers/P-Plan

then click the "Subscribe" button so you are emailed about all changes
to that page.

Then, subscribe to each of the Lubuntu 12.04 blueprints on Launchpad, so
you will automatically get emails as they are updated.

  https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/other-lubuntu-p-users-experience


is one such blueprint, I can't seem to find the others right now, I
think that there should (theoretically) be one each for the "clean
house" and "organization" parts of the plan too.  Maybe Julien can
provide pointers to those for us.

Thanks,

Jonathan
