Just discovered OpenShot last week and love it! It can be a little quirky at times so making it a default editorer and to get some more developers working on it would be great!

As for removing GIMP, it's understandable, although it's essential for me, it's a big heavy program the average user won't use too much.

I haven't used F-Spot that much, it needs features such as red eye removal, cropping etc. I like it's built-in export to picasa/facebook/flickr etc.

I have a couple of my games up on launchpad, I have had very little interest but seeing as more games are needed I wouldn't mind writing some more email me if there is anything you want implemented (within reason).

Why does the Gimp need to go? Why not just move to a DVD iso?

[LoveandEqualityToAll]

Gimp is gone i dont use it. I hope they place

openShot as a video editor.

By the way, I never liked F-Spot because it automaticly imports picks from my devices.

Don touch my drive man!

I think it should not be attempted to get an image viewer and editor in one.

Eye of Gnome alway worked fine for me and you can use the sroll button to zoom in quickly into an area. Browsing forward and backward is a must-have. The rotation is also handy and a nice add-on would be that the picture is actually rotated by it like in XP.

But it must be quick and light weight, just for viewing and showing your photoś

Editing is a different area IMHO.

So one clicks right and picks "open with GIMP"

[MiraiWarren]

To save the rotated image, hit Ctrl-s after rotating. Très simple.

I wasn't thrilled when I heard they were dumping the Gimp since I use it pretty often, but it was great to see the discussion that went into the decision. I'm also glad to see gThumb, my fav image viewer, get a mention, along with gbrainy.

To become popular. Ubuntu has to get the attention of the young people. So best you can do next... replace default installed games (waste of space) by an online ubuntu game website. Links to ubuntu online gaming in the menu. Online games can do much more than most of the linux games. Best scenario is offcourse getting the attention of the game industry. Quake or Unreal Tournement were nice. But young people want to play the newest high quality games. And wine isn't a one click solution. ...

To get any significant market share, Ubuntu needs to build a solid platform on mobile devices and with governments/schools. Young gamers don't drive the OS market, and never have.

Also, any penetration into academia or government markets will, likely, come from outside the US.

Bring out the Gimp! Great program to download!

[Aeoaye]

remove ooo and evolution. Abiword+thunderbird is a good alternative. also replace network-manager with wicd and pulseaudio with esound.

[jeroeniskoning]

Keep open-office plz =S

[s0ul08]

Even if they got rid of gimp you can always re download it from the repositories...do what you have to do guys....

[MacroStuff]

Don't get rid of GIMP!

[pczaban]

you can always install it if you want and avarage ubuntu user doesn't use it very much

[Gimpible]

DON"T REMOVE GIMP PLEASE!

[flyingmonkeyskin]

openshot is the best video editor I've seen for ubuntu so far. It's simple and effective for the needs of average users- which is great for a default install.

[motters2001]

They should have wormux installed by default

[pczaban]

it weights too much

[oencke]

I agree PokerTH would be a nice nod to the poker folks out there. But please call it something like "Hold'em Poker" in the menu.

[oencke]

My suggestions:

Games:

Blobby Volley 2

Graphics:

Enhance EoG to do red eye removal, cropping and (automatic) color correction and put two buttons in it that offer "add picture/folder to album" and start F-Spot.

Another very useful addition to EoG would be the possibility to arrange and print multiple images on a single piece of paper.

Scanning:

I'd like to see a combination of Gnome Scan and gscan2pdf since easy scanning of documents to pdf for email and printing would be very convenient.

[ylar34]

interesting video.

PokerTH is a decent multiplayer game that would be a nice addition.

[region1111]

How about fixing pulseaudio's integration with ubuntu.

Is that on the agenda? It should work with dosbox.

[heydude09876]

why get rid of gimp??? gimp is awesome

if you want to remove something remove f-spot instead
