Shuttleworth: A global menu for Ubuntu 10.10 Netbook Edition

Mark Shuttleworth describes a global menu for the 10.10 Netbook Edition. "In the netbook edition for 10.10, we're going to have a single menu bar for all applications, in the panel. Our focus on netbooks has driven much of the desktop design work at Canonical. There are a number of constraints and challenges that are particular to netbooks, and often constraints can be a source of insight and inspiration. In this case, wanting to make the most of vertical space has driven the decision to embrace the single menu approach."
