As you well know no one likes to search and dig thru forums for days and weeks to install a module or any program because they expect it to run out of the box with some slight tweaks of css or GOOD changes in the code, I don't think you expect your users to have a difficult time developing with xoops...

like i say, there's too many forums, nobody knows where to post. information is scattered all over the place etc.
Would you like to see the forums & threads streamlined?
After reading and filtering discussions here and on sourceforge. I sense a real disconnect between the developers and the users. The users feel they are talking, but no one is listening. The developers are trying to get something going, but get bogged down in administrative tasks. The moderators are trying to do their job, however, they have administrators / developers putting up road blocks. So far what I have read, it is US vs. Them vs. Them
IMHO, there are too few people on too many teams trying to do too many functions and too many people complaining, The users are frustrated with the continuous in fighting and fewer answers.
I recommend the following guidelines across the board.
1.One person can be on no more than one team, with the exception of representing their team on a council.
2.Each team respects the other teams' autonomy.
While I at first supported an End-users group or team, I am beginning to question the motivation behind such a move. Maybe a pool of end-users who are willing to work a short-term project might be a better move. Until the core management is made official, we should hold off on this idea.
Some dream of success, while others wake up and work for it.
