And watch where you push. Sometimes it sounds like borderline whining..
Let's focus on channeling the energies to something productive..

I think that is not very nice atmosphere. I think it shows impatience on your part more than anything else.
It didn't even feel like you were joking to be honest.

1). Fix it yourself if you can.
2). If you can't, then find someone who can and work together with them to address the problem.
#2 seems simple, but as you can see from the past few days it's not as straightforward as it seems. There are positive ways to do this and there definitely are negative ways to do it. The negative ones vary a lot.. let me give you a few examples:
- Annoy or harass others, so they will do your bidding to make you stop. This is essentially the same concept that a child exerts when they whine, hence the term. In a forum, it can be seen when someone keeps talking about the same issue again and again in multiple threads.
- Intimidate others by saying things like "I'm gonna slap\punch someone if I'm in the same room as them"

Is there any way to get all rotatin brainstorms into one session? Because I know I commented on another brainstorm idea which also was about general rotation of the device (and no, I cannot find it again).
EDIT: Ah yes, this one: http://maemo.org/community/brainstor..._in_fremantle/

Universal support would be fine; very limited support (within one app) is fine; half-way support is very tricky. Say you have a platform where 20 apps support portrait mode and 20 do not. Clicking on an app in portrait mode icon in the Menu or on the Home screens, you can never be sure if the resulting UI would be 90 degrees around. And the Dashboard: say that you have three applications running that work in portrait and three that do not, what does it look like.
The Dashboard is probably about the single hardest UI piece to solve in cases where some applications do not support portrait mode. I've already heard good enough proposals on how the Home screens would work, but I haven't heard the same for Dashboard. You can be in landscape mode, enter an application, turn to portrait, zoom out back to Dashboard. First of all every app needs to activate themselves and rerender themselves in another orientation (not easy peasy if you have 10 apps open), then again, some do not. Or you can enter the Dashboard, then turn the orientation: everything rerenders? Are the thumbnails horizontal or vertical? Or a mixture of both? What happens with notifications, do they also rotate? Are some graphics in thumbnails just 90 degrees around, i.e. not updated? Does the view turn only after entering the next application etc.
If somebody has great ideas on how to visualize this, please contribute to Brainstorm and let us know.
