Comment 69 for bug 615300

Personally I'm quite disappointed this is not the default. I think it's a great idea, that subtly tells people about Ubuntu. It's easy, and always was, to turn off for those that like to hide their light under a bushell. For the rest of us, and I suspect most of the people who thought it a good idea, or thought it not worth getting their knickers in a twist over, either never heard of the poll or just didn't bother to vote. I actually didn't even know there was a poll until today.

This is once again a case of the vocal minority getting their way, simply because they can shout louder than anyone else.

It would be really good if there were instructions telling people about this nice feature, and how to turn it on, given that it is now not the default.

I've actually created my own version of the signature, so I can implement it right away.
