Re: Mad Penguin review

Look, no matter if  this release were Barfing Buffalo or Beautiful
Butterfly, I'd still be waiting impatiently for  CDs to arrive.
That Ubuntu evidences disdain for marketing suggests that perhaps the
technical merits can overcome naming conventions  and 
perhaps marketing and sales are not the target audience. I regard this
as a plus.
I think brown a warm, friendly contrast to the overwhelming blue themes on sites and most programs on computers.

Hello,

Seeing the current euphoria of the breezy release, i may stick out as sore thumb, still suggesting that the Ubunutu nameing scheme is one the bad points of ubuntu. The only other minus was using swsusp instead of suspend2, but thats a technical issue.

Otherwise, a great release guys, thanks!!

Rohan.

There was a poll[1] about it on the Fridge.

First we lost the best official backgrounds and login screen anyone
ever shipped, now we're going to lose another nice micro-feature because
somebody somewhere feels offended/embarassed/whatever. If Ubuntu wanted
to please the easily offended/corporate/white-collars, the first thing
it should change is the name itself.
