Hello,

As I've said before, I think it could be interesting to have a group
of users/coders which could do some investigation around the U.I.
maybe build some test versions and so on...

It's mission would be:
-find out what's wrong or badly implemented in blender's UI, and
therefor how to correct this
-find out how to make blender's UI (BUI, for short) more newbie
friendly
-AND how to KEEP the BUI productive for experienced users
-think of how new features should be designed for the user...

etc....

it could use a web place for discussion too, image upload etc...
Coders should be part of it, they know what's possible or
impossible...
On the other side, users can submit stuff that is, for the moment,
impossible, but in the futur, someday, maybe...

What do you think of this? If such a thing is put up, i'm very willing
to participate, test, report, suggest...

And my two cents to the discussion : I don't think we should "Freeze"
the UI just to make it stay compatible wtih the old tutorials.
and, BTW,  [HINT TO MYSELF] tutorials should be updated every now and
then [/HINT TO MYSELF] :)
