gEDA-user: example of a valid bugreport / user feedback



This guy (see below) isn't a pussy and simply writes what he thinks.
Advantages:

1) I don't have to weed out those "it would be better", "in my
opinion", "I think", "I know it's a lot of work but..." and other
ballast, therefore faster reading.

2) The emotions get transferred to me which motivates me more to fix
it than a bland bugreport.

Hi,

I tried to look at your website and gave up.  It would be a more
useful website if you would:

1. get rid of the stupid background graphics.

2. if you must change the colors from HTML or web browser default,
consider black text on a grey background.

3. put the information on fewer pages. I know how to use a mouse
and click on links but it would be much more useful if you would
aggregate the information into one page.  I know how to use scroll
bars.  For example, this is dumb:

Ronja AUI Forte

    * About
    * Technical Specification
    * Tools needed
    * Material needed
    * Fundamentals of manufacturing operations
    * Building 

You have each topic as a different link, and I have to click on
dozens of links just to try to find where to look.  It's much
faster if I can scroll down a page and scan quickly with my eyes.
How about putting all of that stuff on one page in sections and
you can use section links to provide the table of contents?

Thanks,
Jim
