An idea I have been tinkering with in the lat months has been creating a set of teams that costomize module packs for a targeted group of potensial users.
Befor you look away. Think of the potensial. By dooing this potensial users of XOOPS can contact a team dedicated to a set of need.
A corperate tema
A School team
A band team
A Personal homepage team
A sports team
and so on.
If we also had a "design team" taking requests form the other teams then we would would be able to hit the nail on its head so to speak.
At some stage we might need to be able to set a module "mode" to scool or band. we might be able to use costome fuctionality for the diferent modules. This is just a thoght for the future.
Iv been promoting XOOPS for quite a while now. And I always keep getting the same responce. Its complicated. People keep saying its complicated. I personaly find this strange. But I now think I understand what they all are talking about. I suspect its all about number of clicks and the way the admin area is orgenized. To all you hardcore xoopers. Gather a group, create a standard for accesibility. for each unessesary click in a module, it is compounded by x click for x XOOPS instalations. A big waist of time. Dont take this the wrong way. I dont use mambo, I don't use ez. I xoops. Its the CMS that rocks. The name makes people shrug there sholders. And usability migt need a think threw. But it rocks.
