I'd never really spotted it before! That's really awesome! A bunch of the other stuff on the Get Involved page is good too, but I think Ubuntu Brainstorm is the only one I had completely overlooked (is it new? :) )

Here is the link: http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/

and for convenience, here's the link to the Get Involved page for anyone like me who is still finding ways they can help! - http://www.ubuntu.com/community/participate

Yes . This is one of the features that I love very much in Ubuntu . I could find a similar one in KDE too . The kde brainstorm. I couldn't find one for Gnome.

Question is: do the developers really care about what's written there?

Well I assume they do as it's a site hosted by Ubuntu itself? I think there's little point wasting your bandwidth on a community site if you don't care about it. :)

Many of the ideas in the Ubuntu brainstorm are implemented in Ubuntu . In the kde brainstorm, the developers used to view the brainstorm . One of the developers I met there is Ivan the one who coded the lancelot plasmoid(if I remember correctly).

please have a look at my previous post once again . That's the official kde brainstorm. Never waste your time in posting in an unofficial one. There is a link to the official kde forum in the kde site(www.kde.org) . From there, you can go to the brainstorm section. There is another way to tell your ideas , by posting a wishlist in the bugs.kde.org

The karmic release is coming . The developers are too busy . They don't get time to visit brainstorms. After a release(in the first month after the release), you can see the developers in the brainstorms . THE UBUNTU SOFTWARE CENTRE WAS A BRAINSTORM IDEA.

Thing is though, the KDE team are too perfect as it is! hehe ^_^

Anything I suggest I bet you they have come up with and are already actively working on implementing!

There is a reason I declare all the time that KDE is the best desktop in the world! hehe ^_^

Oh, and I just submitted a few ideas to the Ubuntu crew (awaiting approval)! Here they are let me know what you think :)
