Folks, please stop this thread, it's not constructive. This is not a mailing list for discussions about religion or culture, except as it applies to the design and user experience of Unity and Ubuntu.

Just stop.

The community council is the best place to have a conversation about policy in this regard. As a member of the CC, I'll make a general call on this which you can escalate to the full CC if you wish.

On the subject of searches, yes, it's inappropriate that "Porn Viewer" shows up in a search for something other than "porn". I don't dispute the right of the project owners to call it that, but we don't need to promote it, and should prejudice it in cases where the user is not explicitly looking for it.

So, please file a bug to the effect that:

* we should have a set of apps which will only match a very restricted, specific title search * we should have a documented policy to this effect, and a mechanism to add apps to that list

Mark,

I would like to feel free to evangelise where I wish. Can I do so at the CC? I also would like to see Ubuntu as a Christian operating system if possible. Where can I take this? Thanks!

Ryan
