That's exactly what I was trying to say. I'm the one who advocated the
decision to switch our whole computer network (including school's
administration, classrooms etc.) to Ubuntu. I know people will give me a
hard time after we adopt Ubuntu 10.04. The worst thing is I can't say to
them "after careful consideration and month of usability studies Ubuntu
team decided to change the design, and here are the reasons why this was
necessary". All I can say is "I don't really know. They made the
decision 4 weeks before release, claiming there is a plan, but without
giving us any details. The decision seemed rushed and not really backed
by data, so I can't be even sure the change is here to stay. I'm sorry,
but we will have to wait to the next release and see".
