You noticed that too, did you? Here I was thinking I was the odd one. :-\

I agree. For first few of the last ideas by Eldmanen I thought well that's interesting +1, but now it's a bit of a so-called "clutter"
But I will not vote as this is not really an idea, but an ironic approach of ideas by other user.

Eldamanen if you'll read this comments; next time you want new apps for Ubuntu put all of them in one idea to reduce clutter. It's just "friendly" advice.

Whilst I'm sure he'd do well in the package popularity contest, when does the craziness stop?

Pretty soon to satisfy other peoples requests, mark shuttleworth, Linus Torvalds, and the entire Freedesktop team would end up in a repos.

All of Eldmannens recent requests have had similarities (anonymity apps), so I feel they are appropriate..

But yeah, this one is kinda somehow not an idea?

We need a big repository with a lot of packages.
The more packages - the more choice.

As the userbase grows, so do the repository have to do.

Eldmannen I agree, but next time put ideas about it in one idea. And yes a lot of ideas that you proposed are totally good ideas but they could be all presented in one idea.
I still don't know how to vote on this idea.
Still 0. It might be good to make a big repo but please next ideas about apps addition should be all-in-one.

Thought it wasn't like that people post multiple stuff into one idea... but oh well...

Primož Papič wrote on the 3 Jun 08 at 18:54

I think that all of your ideas were about safer internet connection. So it could be presented in one idea:
"Provide applications for better internet anonymity"
or something like that...
But yes it your decision...
Ah well I'll give it +1 to, i think we need more apps, that are good and useful...

Primož, I have seen quite a few comments from moderators saying to break up multiple ideas. I think Eldmannen is correct with adding each of the packages as a separate idea.
Perhaps adding an explanatory note to one of the ideas explaining the grouping would work.
Any way, to Eldmannen and all those who commented, keep on scratching your collective heads, and keep on posting.
...and I'm copping a hiding with negative votes on this one. The sooner its marked as "Not an idea", the happier I'll be. :-/

Would this help ...

This is NOT an idea!

Primož Papič wrote on the 4 Jun 08 at 08:57

To gazilla: Yes I read about that to. But I think that in this case it would be better to post everything in one idea, as it was made on the end. You have to think if your idea is really just one or more ideas. In this case it should be presented in one idea, because all of ideas that Eldmannen posted had the same idea in mind; to increase anonymity on internet... I agree if ideas are totally different they should be presented on their own, but I think this was not the case...
One of other possibilities that I proposed:
Attaching similar ideas
