On Usability and UI

Hi all, I have installed several wiki-ish/collab apps within my intranet so we can test drive them and pick one by the end of the month ( twiki, mediawiki, confluence, xwiki, jspwiki, snipsnap, sharepoint, etc ). So far xwiki is one of the best from the dev point of view. It is free, flexible ( makes for a nice platform for quick day-to-day inhoues apps ), and 100% java. And since we are all geeks, it makes for a nice toy. But from the usability POV it lags behind. * Forms and buttons are not polished ( interaction is awkward and feedback is sometimes ambigous ) * There is too much on the screen I really believe you should focus on improving the UI, as it accounts for a large part of the perceived value... take a look at twiki, confluence or SnipSnap ( and even mediakiwi and it's sound simplicity ). Is something on these lines planned for the next release? Dates? I am tweaking the templates to see how far I can go, but I'd rather stay aligned with you guys. Great work ;), Aldo -- ::::: Aldo Bucchi ::::: mobile (56) 8 429 8300
