Ubuntu Online Survey: Which Apps Do You Want In Ubuntu?
The team at Ubuntu is trying to get users views as to which programs should be included in future versions of Ubuntu. The survey will be online until the end of January.
'"Please help the Canonical and Ubuntu leadership," writes Matthew Helke in his post on the Ubuntu forum. This latest survey intends to discover which (proprietary) applications should be better supported. Ubuntu is not looking for standard installation programs, but for applications for Canonical to offer as packages or which can be integrated into repositories.
This is not a complete list and it can be extended at the forum. The survey can be found here.
