Comment 36 for bug 882274

At least for me, this kind of communication (including mainly the "won't fix" attitude) had one advantage: I learned relatively fast that I had to say "goodbye" to mainstream ubuntu. (I'm using now xubuntu + compiz in ambiance flavour.)

Speaking of usability tests:
I see at least two problems regarding the community and communication within the usability tests:

1. No ubuntu user was included. Only 13 Windows users, 1 Mac user and 1 user who uses both Windows and MacOSX. http://design.canonical.com/2010/11/usability-testing-of-unity/
--> Unity is in fact not developed for the ubuntu community.

2. Between the usability tests, progress was announced although there was no change of the interface regarding those issues, only the aims were set in a way much easier to achieve.
--> issues were not solved, but talked away.
(I wrote about this in detail there: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=10971464&postcount=25 )

One might say now: Who cares about the old ubuntu community? Canonical is obviously trying to get a new one!
Well, that will be a lot harder then they continue losing multiplicaors, people who recommend ubuntu and help installing it.
(i can't recommend it any more, because it has no got default setting any more. [for me, the main problem in Unity is bad windows- and workspace-management.])
Therefore, a better communication in both ways would be really useful.

And speaking of https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/733349 (minimize window by clicking on the launcher):
I'm not really pleased with the given explanations yet. What's the problem in adding ONE more option in CCSM which seems to have hundreds of settings (which I enjoy very much) yet? This seems to be not consequent.
Also, there are many GUI elements in ubuntu which toggle show/hide by click without changing appearance (@#20), e.g. most indicators.
(I don't want to revert the decision, I don't use Unity any more and so I don't care, I only want to show reasons for 733349 are reasonable...)
