What are the idea posting guidelines?
• Really an idea? If your request concerns software that does not work correctly, incorrect translation, you should open a bug report. If your request concerns a new package to be included in Ubuntu, you should use the new package requesting guide. Brainstorm is designed to vote and discuss ideas only. • Avoid duplicates You might often find that someone has had the same idea as you before. Before posting, use the search to check if your idea has already been submitted by someone else. • Be precise An idea should focus on one point only. Don’t put a broad scope to your ideas or post multiple ideas at the same time. Ideas such as “Improve Ubuntu performance”, are too generic and obvious. A good example of a precise idea would be, “Add ability to queue torrents in Transmission”. • Be clear and elaborate A well explained and structured idea has more chance of attracting votes. • Be respectful Do not use ideas to denigrate/attack projects or people. Your idea may be deleted.
