After seeing XE-14 [1] I've made a quick
evaluation of what
Admin.WebHome contains, available here :

My suggestion is at the end of the document, I suggest to remove the
link to this page in the quicklinks panel and replace its content by a
small description since it would be useless after some minor additions
in the top menu.
WDYT ?
1) I think we need a control panel (a la windows for example). When
the user clicks on the "Administration" link in the top right corner
of the screen it goes to a page with a nice control panel (i.e. nice
icons). This Panel would replace the current Administration view with
tabs. Clicking on a control panel item will go to a special page
about that item.
2) I think we need everything that's about Admin in this control
panel, including Blogs, Photo Album, etc.
3) In the future the control panel would offer extension points for
apps to contribute items to it but right now we should hardcode items
for Blogs, Photo Album, etc. It's easy to know which ones to include
since this is inside XE and we control the default apps bundled in XE.
4) It would be great to get Laurent Lunati's help to design this
control panel.
WDYT?
Thanks
