Vercingetorix: I’ve spoken to one of the MOTUs you mention and I’m sorry they’ve chosen to leave MOTU. In the next couple of weeks, Reinhard Tartler – the LaunchpadMOTU liaison – and I will be looking at ways that we can improve the experience for MOTUs.

I'm sorry, but I don't like the new look at all. The old one was much prettier, and more usable. The new delete and edit icons are as clear as mud, it took me ages to find them, please add text next to the icons. Tasks like changing your SSH key or your email address are now extremely difficult to find and do. New bugs have been introduced, like Bug 251768. And why on Earth are you using two logos, an lp logo and a the competition winner logo?

In the week since you released the new version two long standing and highly respected Ubuntu MOTUs have quit due in large part to the changes. Ubuntu is just a packaging of other people’s work. Bug 1 will never be resolved if you insist on driving away the very people dedicated to making that happen.
