Yeah. I was thinking Hardy+1 - Possibly even Hardy+2. I dont think
there is even time for a full new theme, let alone a whole new UI for Hardy!

But I think that we have no time to make these mods until the launch of 8.04...

Here's an idea, and something I have been wanting for a long time...
Get rid of the 'Desktop' as a file store - remove it from the directory
hierarchy!
The only reason to store something on the desktop is if you can't be
bothered to put it where it's meant to go. Ideally everything should be

I do like this idea very much, but I think there would be a lot of
resistance to it as I think people like having their desktop as a junk
store.
Or maybe they're just too used to the idea.
But it gets a thumbs-up from me! Its mildly annoying to me that

Hi everybody!
I was wondering how could be that app launcher and this is my point of view:
First of all, I think that having a KDE/Windows menu is unusable. Why? you
need several clicks to open recent apps so if you use an aplication
frequently it slows your workflow. Mac OS X bar is a good appro
With regards to the file manager idea I think this would simply be genius! A
start would be possibly to port across KDE's fabulous content sensitive "New
device found" type window which offers such functionality. Given how good
F-Spot is (and how few people realize it exists!) it would be great to

I was recently pondering file managers, too. A discussion a while ago
covered how "regular users" should never need to use a file manager.
Software like F-Spot and Rhythmbox in Ubuntu, as well as our *fantastic *drag
and drop support, makes this a definite possibility. I can grab one of my

Andrew, your ideas are great, but I find one problem in that draft. I think
that you will need at least 3 clicks to open an app, and that's not usable.
Current gnome's menu is quite obsolete, three clicks needed to open any app,
so improving this could be a killer feature.
How can we do this? tryi
As only one person responded we'll postpone the meeting until I know that
people will actually attend :-)
Someone suggest a time and date and let's figure this out.

Yeah; that'
I do not think removing the desktop as a junk store is a good idea: think
about a real desk top (the top of a desk!!) - when you are working on
something, it, along with the other bits and pieces are placed over your
desk, along with a scattering of tools (pens, pencils etc). The desktop as a
