Dear Tomasz,

That would be great. But they are still required to have valid account on launchpad or something official from ubuntu though, otherwise naughty user will poll and poll again just to abuse ubuntu developement progress.

I'm not a programmer but I'm sure I'll glad to help with any kind of help I can give to make sure Ubuntu be the easier and efficient operating system.

I do still believe there's something has to change regarding the up to date software installation, just like in windows xp, though it's old from year 2001, but we still able to install most of the latest software on it. Unlike on Ubuntu, to get latest software, we have to upgrade the to the current update release, or using an unofficial ppa or backport repository, and sometimes the latest one is not supported anymore on previous ubuntu release. It's okay to upgrade ubuntu one or two machine, but to imagine upgrading 60-75 machines, that's a very time consuming process, assumed one pc takes 45 minutes to 1 hour long.

Just my two cents.


Kind regards,

Hello,

My question is about the attitude of making changes to Ubuntu. Most replies start with "Users don't want to", "Most users won't do that", "This will make users confused". How do you have such information? My proposal is to make a "Ubuntu poll" application that will gather opinion from users (NOT requiring a Launchpad account). What do you think about it? I am a python programmer, I can make such an app.

Best regards,
Tomasz Sałaciński
