A description of the proposed changes, with sufficient detail to estimate their potential impact on the distribution:
Changing the default wallpaper from the existing Groovy Gorilla illustration to the Raspberry Pi specific one with the Raspberry in his sunglasses.
"We'll basically need to revert https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-settings/20.10.2 and https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-wallpapers/20.10.2-0ubuntu1 and update the warty-final-ubuntu.png"
A rationale for the exception, explaining the benefit of the change:
The benefit is to pay homage to the work various teams have been doing with the Raspberry Pi foundation and to their product. It's a way to signal our commitment to making their platform great and deepen our relationship with the Pi foundation.
Any additional information which would be helpful in considering the decision
The concerns people have are of product placement and forcing something onto peoples machines. There are several arguments against this, the option to change to the default easily, that there is not direct link to Raspberry Pi anything and its quite subtle. But ultimately the reason is we want to make a splash with the Raspberry Pi and arm in general and this is a very good way to do it. |
Changing the default wallpaper from the existing Groovy Gorilla illustration to the one featuring Raspberry Pi tinted sunglasses.
For the default desktop wallpaper we'll need to revert https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-settings/20.10.2 and https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-wallpapers/20.10.2-0ubuntu1 and update the warty-final-ubuntu.png and also include the with the plain sunglasses mascot wallpaper as an option.
The background wallpaper for Ubiquity slideshow should also be changed to use the version featuring the mascot wearing Raspberry Pi tinted sunglasses.
