Hello,
I reported and subscribed to different bugs asking to move things into
and out from System->Administration GNOME menu.
Sebastien Bacher wrote that these were not bugs and should be discussed
on the list instead.
So here you are :
system monitor should be moved in accessories, don't belong in
administration
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/286929
system-cleaner should go in System->Administration, not in applications
as it requires a password and is used for administrative tasks
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/286458
network tools should be moved in Internet, don't belong in
administration
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/286931
The discussion stemmed from this bug :
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/274714
I always explain my users that System->Preferences modifies things about
the current user and System->Administration modifies system related
things (requiring a password and affecting all users). However some
applications in these places make my "definition" wrong.
What do you people think about it ?
Thanks and best regards
