Hi,
IMO, we can use the document tree macro to achieve both usecases of the
previous documents and spaces macros, so no need to have more than 1
navigation macro for this.
+1 for (2)
Re (3), we could wait and see how the tree navigation works out and, if
users find that to be easy enough, we could eventually do (3). For now
however, having some navigation in the dashboard is in line with the
"overview" nature of the dashboard itself, so I think we could keep it.
Thanks,
Eduard

  Hello Vincent,
 I'm +0 for (3), because as you said, sol5+sol6 it's more likely to be
 chosen, but I think this will not be sufficient. Displaying a (future)
 Document Tree Macro on Dashboard it will help a lot the users to find out
 where are the documents localized in the hierarchy or at least have a big
 picture about it, without entering every page and check the breadcrumb.
 And they can't use the Go To functionality if they don't know previously
 where the document is localized.
 But that's just my opinion.
 Thanks,
 Gabriela

 -0 for (1), because even though it takes less time to display a list of 
  top
  level nodes, I don't think it's achieving
the concept of Nested Spaces
 (Documents), since what will be shown it is what is shown now, without 
 the
  Nested Spaces concept implemented.

 See also my proposal (3) in my previous answer on this thread.
 WDYT about it?
 Thanks
