Matthias asked me to forward interesting forum threads to the list, so
here's the first one I've seen:
http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=232976someone doesn't like black notifications :) FWIW I don't much like black
either (on a related note I hope color customization makes it into
gnome-shell soon). Not sure if there's anything to do here other than
tell him he's wrong and Fedora believes Black Is Good, though :)

http://marilyn.frields.org:8080/~paul/wordpress/?p=2753#commentsI already outlined my
criticism a month ago in this list, so I'm not
going to repeat it here.
To be fair, there are also people who like them. Paul wrote:
"the newer notifications are more eye catching, which means they’re more
effective at doing their job."
I think this is no surprise, because the new notifications are *much*
bigger then the old ones. Also, there is no discrimination between
notification urgency [1], which IMO is a major drawback.

Hello Christo,
could you tell us the reported bugs' numbers, please?
Btw, what do you mean
by 'went in the Dimension-X'? something like

I am pretty sure our OOo maintainer (who is also a top upstream
developer) *is* subscribed to this list (as he should be). With this
being said, I acknowledge 'went in the Dimension-X' is totally useless
as a bug report.
