I think it's vitally important here to make sure things are clear: yes, there is such as thing as "sponsorship". Once someone has a fix ready that is both appropriate and well-executed (as reviewed by some person, upstream or a "domain expert"), then developers can upload these fixes for a contributor who has no upload access. It seems to me like this is what Raphael was pre-emptively asking for. However, it's *way* too early for this... > If there is already a > bug about the window controls, then simply make sure that ubuntu-ux is > an affected project as well, and feel free to discuss details on > implementation and design in there.

This is a contentious issue that polarizes people, even though, in the end, the actual location of the controls doesn't matter. We've changed them once already and there was a lot of criticism. It seems like now there'd be just as much, since people have gotten accustomed to it, like it this way, etc.; just like there are others who are just coming to Ubuntu and feel their placement is wrong. If you want change to happen, the best way is to provide concrete technical proof (studies?) that it's a better location -- anything else boils down to personal opinion. If what you're after is providing a setting so that users can customize their systems, then you probably should bring this up on the appropriate technical list (unity-design or unity-dev I guess?), so that domain experts can say that it has already been considered, and why it wasn't done yet. Finally, if I can share a bit: when I concentrate on a window for an extended period of time, it's maximized. This means I will have the menu in the title bar, which is "integrated" in the top panel. Having the window controls on the left in this case is fine since it would otherwise be unbalanced to have even more icons on the right (plus these icons have a vastly different purpose. Some are menu-like to effect an action on the current window, the others provide global information about my system. White space generally separates the two, unless the window title is very long). The window controls also push the title right just enough that it's almost lined up with the actual window, rather than being above the Launcher. -- Mathieu Trudel-Lapierre <mathieu...@gmail.com> Freenode: cyphermox, Jabber: mathieu...@gmail.com 4096R/DC95CA5A 36E2 CF22 B077 FEFE 725C 80D3 C7DA A946 DC95 CA5A
