Mark Shuttleworth takes a look at the
proposals Canonical's user experience design and desktop experience
engineering teams have made for Ubuntu 9.04. "Some of these ideas
are unproven, they boil down to matters of opinion, but since our
commitment to them is based on a desire to learn more I think of them as
constructive experiments. Experiments are just that - experiments. They may
succeed and they may fail. We should judge them carefully, after we have
data. We are putting new ideas into the free desktop without ego. We know
those ideas could be better or worse than similar work being done in other
communities, and we want to gather real user feedback to help find the best
mix for everyone. The best ideas, and the best code, will ultimately form
part of the digital free software commons and be shared by GNOME, KDE and
every distribution."
