Excellent

This is something every distro has really needed to do for quite some time. Most of the major distributions already have a very sweet base core of an operating system and pre-installed applications; but instead of getting this base setup pristine, they tend to gravitate towards more new and often less than ready features. With such a diverse and excellent set of features and software already in place, I think it is high time that the bugs and U.I. problems are put to the top of the list. Stop feature stuffing aka bloating the OS, start fine tuning already.

This is a great day for Ubuntu, and I hope a great example for GNU/Linux Distributions across the board. I am thrilled.

Agreed.

I really think this initiative, along with Project Ayatana, is a big step in the right direction for GNU/Linux on the desktop. Useability fixes galore, yay!

I just wish Kubuntu had a similar notification plasmoid to Ubuntu Jaunty's...
