From a user point of view, I don't see anything that makes it clear that these _aren't_ random RPMs off of the internet. There's nothing that shows what they actually are or how they'll be installed. I *like* the functionality of adding and removing Extensions in Software. That's cool and seems like the logical place for it. I just want users have a good understanding of a) support expectations and b) quality expectations — where to go for help, and what rules the third-party repository plays by. I know I said this to Allan from the very beginning in the design discussions we had, so I don't think that that's moving any goalposts. > And I'm fairly confident that if you ask the mythical 'novice' user > what it means that it is downloading from extensions.gnome.org, they > will say that it means 'its not from fedora'. I'd be happy to support some UX studies. -- Matthew Miller <mattdm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Fedora Project Leader _______________________________________________ desktop mailing list -- desktop@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to desktop-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
