I think that all of the app updates are fabulous, but I can’t help but wonder: Where are the important interface and usability changes? Just clicking over to Get Satisfaction reveals that there are some very requested (necessary, in fact) changes. Is there any place to read more technical updates on what, if anything, is being worked on under the hood? Additionally, where are compatibility updates posted? Do we just need to continually check the compatibility chart and look for changes?

I second this. I am really excited to check out all the new apps you add quite frequently, but it seems as though development had been channelled into apps and not to interface and usability as Matt suggested above. It would be a pity to see the project’s focus shifting this way.

It doesn’t mean that we don’t love and appreciate all the fancy stuff you keep on pouring out each week though :)

Yes, please.

We’re all hungry for more information on what’s coming down from the Jolicloud.

The weekly apps are important, but details of what you’re working on for coming betas is what will keep us all from straying to another distro. I’d love to see a weekly development update here in addition to the Friday apps.

I agree with Vlad, Zoltan, Matt! Let’s hear more about OS progress and less about another Twitter-Google Maps-discotheque mashup. A weekly development update would be much appreciated.

I like this list. Especially Spectives! I founded it :)
When you really like visual subjects as gadgets, photography, cars, funny pictures or design, you should check out Spectives. It lets you follow sites visually.

I think that especially with the impending release of Google Chrome (OS), Jolicloud will need to really take to heart all of the suggestions over at Get Satisfaction, or die out. As harsh as that sounds, with all of the star power that Google commands and their intended focus on the cloud and netbooks (similar to the Jolicloud focus) Jolicloud will really need to step up its game to gain market share.

the best (most?) requested feature is that the modified UNR desktop be somehow completely abandoned for a universal UI (the same UI shown in all of your screen shots — the UI you’re proud of). This would require features like an ‘installed apps’ tab from where apps can be launched, and perhaps even a modification of local file browsing. Is this being worked on at all or is it deemed impossible or simply a bad idea? The community is curious but hasn’t heard back from you! Why bother having an account over at Get Satisfaction if you’re users can’t get satisfaction?

We’re in the dark! Help us out Jolicloud! Keep us from defecting.

I think all the team works very hard.
They work on each subject: the kernel, the user interface, the cloud, the community…
Some news should arrive by the end of the year.

Of course they work hard. I never meant to call that into question. I was merely pointing out the fact that there is very little transparency in this project if they are indeed addressing user concerns, because there hasn’t been any kind of “OK, we hear you all loud and clear — we’ll fix it,” kind of post, and there hasn’t been any indication at all that apps and compatibility aren’t the entirety of the teams focus.

They’re doing all kinds of things, no doubt — we would just love to know about it.
