Network is for your local (computer) network and thus no place for Contacts/People. Not all contacts/people a user wants or has to manage are what they would call "personal". People and Contacts are not quite the same. The first implies or encourages bundling of as much information as you you can get, while the later puts an emphasis on addresses and communication channels. > 3.

I think the Desktop folder has great potential to confuse users with its special dual presence. The whole dual approach of having a single-rooted filesystem and "Places" on top of it presents a scary conceptual depth. > David suggested we discuss specifically the integration of > metacontacts in Unity's launcher, so please ppl, let it happen ;) _meta_contacts? I'd prefer to call it people/profiles if it's about bundling addresses belonging to a single person. Hmm, there's also the question of how to model organizations, where you might have addresses that do not map to persons. Call it Groups if it's about collecting addresses in a mailing list or newsletter style. -- Thorsten Wilms thorwil's design for free software: http://thorwil.wordpress.com/ _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ayatana Post to : ayatana@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ayatana More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
