The forms are not submitted to ubuntu.com so that is a non-issue.
Changed the bug accordingly.

As there were many bugs related to the subject in launchpad, I did not
consider the possibility that a separate bug on the "phylosophical"
issue could be filed. I was convinced to do that on IRC. Communication
is good.

Being direct and being polite may live together.
I know that it is easier to not reply when it can likely cause a mess.

No, I am not a developer. I am part of the broader community of ubuntu
users (I do lots of bug reporting). If I write to ubuntu-devel-discuss
maybe there is some developer on it, and maybe they can even communicate
between each other. But let us stop que

You seem to jump to a weird conclusion, because busy maintainers don't

Oli, thanks for this link. So next time I'll see some crappy microsoft

users anymore.

Jan, did you read my e-mails? It is clear to everybody that
Yes, the search is poorly done. It looks bad. It's a simple tool on Google
available to anybody to make a branded search engine and make money from it.
What is trying to be done though, isn't unprecedented. The simplest and most
relevant example to pull off the top of my head is Mozilla having a

Eh, you know that you can add/remove whatever search engine you want,

Me too, but my concern is: is it worth to continue pushing ubuntu among
my friends and colleagues, if they pass over such an issue without
commenting? I do not
I am talking about. The multisearch is an
experimental feature. But the google custom search has been there since
hardy. There is a lot of confusion about the two things. I would like to
learn about the google custom search in the default page, and ideally
would like to see a short text and a

The custom search is quite annoying and intrusive. I've resorted to

The fact that there is nobody willing to reply (I posted a similar
message one year ago, so this is certainly not a matter of time) can
mean only two things:
1) on this list, nobody knows the answer. I think this is likely. Then,
the custom search should be removed from firefox. Nobody knows wh

I see that there are open bugs in launchpad about the google custom
search, mostly related to the multisearch add-on. This is said to be in
testing. But my e-mail is about the default firefox home page, and the
necessity to push a google custom search anyways. The default page was
the custom
Dear all,
today I noticed that the consistency problem between the default ubuntu
start page, which is a custom google search, and the search box at the
top-right of firefox, has finally been solved. Now also the search box
is a custom search.
I already tried to raise the problem that average
