Don`t ask "Whats your name?" - make it clearly optional!  
Written by Theodore the 3 Apr 08 at 19:32. Global category: Installation. New
This question is really unless for an installer. It`s about privacy. People switch from windows to linux because them hope that there is no phone home. Why should an operating system ask for the real name them are thinking.

There is no real need to brand the operating system with this information. The user can enter his name in programs he really want to itself.

Add Google Ads to Ubuntu websites to get marketing budget  
Written by orvils the 4 Apr 08 at 08:35. Global category: Marketing. Won't implement
Let's add Google ads to Ubuntu websites so that we can get some additional money for marketing of Ubuntu. Advertising is not bad, it is everywhere and if these ads are unobtrusive usability and user experience will not suffer. But some additional money will definetly help the cause. Imagine free ubuntu stickers, T-shirts for the community or LoCo teams or profesional advertisments in TV. First we earn the money and then let the community decide how to spend it best.

Give Ubuntu a Personality (Make popups have a life)  
Written by Truefire the 6 Apr 08 at 00:47. Global category: Look and Feel. New
It would be sweet if Ubuntu talked. E.g.: Instead of,"Your computer needs to restart,etc" we would have,"I need to restart because I just got updates! For those updates to work properly, click Restart below." This will not add to the frequency of popups, just give a more personal feel.
.
It will make many people more comfortable with their computers. It feels less 'geeky'. Maybe put a face in the Ubuntu Logo, like Finder in a Mac for these popups.
Overall, this will be a revolutionary yet simple step in the direction of the truly 'user-friendly' computer.

Keep up the good work guys and gals, we appreciate it around the globe.

bookmarks with date and time, for firefox  
Written by dega1999 the 5 Apr 08 at 22:01. Global category: Internet & Networking. New
I don't know what it is in your Bookmarks folder of Firefox but mine is really huge and I have to waste time sometimes putting in order my bookmarks.

Most of the bookmarks are becomed obsolete.
When you browse on the net it's a common task to save some bookmarks but not all of the saved link are useful after the research or in the near future...

The idea here is to have the possibility to organize the bookmarks with a delete time.
When you want to save a link there should be the possibility to choose one of the following sentence for the link:

-never delete
-delete it when I close firefox
-delete after [x] hours and ask
-delete after [x] hours and don't ask me
-delete after [y] days and ask
-delete after [y] days and don't ask me

Firefox: Option to turn password saving off at first password entered  
Written by steve196 the 5 Apr 08 at 21:31. Global category: Internet & Networking. New
This of course requires collaboration from the firefox team.

The first time i type a password in firefox, it asks me if it should remember that password and gives me the options "yes", "never for this site" and "not now"
I would like to have a fourth option "turn password saving off" right there. It is much more convenient, than selecting "not now" and then going to the preferences.

Improve Virtual PC Applications  
Written by nami the 5 Apr 08 at 11:27. Global category: Accessibility. New
1. THey should make full use of the graphics card, so if Windows XP is installed as a virtual pc, we should be able to play games properly.

2. They should allow copy and paste to and from client and host machines.

Remove third party softwares from the repositories and promote autopackage  
Written by livio the 3 Apr 08 at 20:41. Global category: System. New
Ubuntu is very popular distro, and its marketshare is increasing, so, in the future, the servers won't be capable to handle the load generated.

Removing third party software that can be easily downloaded from de developers website will reduce the load on Ubuntu servers, making possible to handle the future demand from the Ubuntu growth.

Promoting autopackage for third party software will make installation and administration easier for end users and will separate third party software from the software provided in Ubuntu.

The packaging system won't suffer any modification, small open source projects can be provided by "Add/Remove" menu and package administration can be made using synaptic.

Great login and logout animation  
Written by natureflow the 16 Mar 08 at 10:51. Global category: Look and Feel. New
When I login to my Desktop, the panel is "blinking". :-( I want a clear build-up: First may a nice Splash screen, then the background, than the panel, the Icons, etc. It should be nice feeling. Do you understand me? Please show me a movie of a great ubuntu login without "blinking" and so one. I want it smooth.

If I logout, I do not want to see a white text on a black background only for a bit of time. I want to see a nice logut animation. Please show me a movie of a nice logout with ubuntu.

I mean: NO extra startup movie clips on startup, but a clear build-up!
