Great initiative! One suggestion regarding the way ideas are brought forward and discussed...
Can we please use blueprints [1] instead of the wiki [2] to discuss ideas? It will make things so much easier for everyone Regards, Alexander Andjelkovic [1]: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/lubuntu-brainstorming [2]: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/Brainstorming/Ideas On Sat, Aug 17, 2013 at 1:14 PM, Ali Linx (amjjawad) <amjja...@gmail.com> wrote: > Dear All, > > As you all my know, Lubuntu 14.04 is going to be a Long Term Support (LTS) > release [1] and it has been decided back in April, 2013 [2]. > > Long Story Short, HOWTO plan for the upcoming LTS release of Lubuntu? how to > discuss? share ideas? etc. > The answer is simple: > > https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/Brainstorming > https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-brainstorming > > > Some may disagree about having a separate area to discuss about Lubuntu > 14.04.
