Hello,


I like to do a suggest.  For a lot of users that need usability it would =
be=20
better that they can say in a simple way where there is a problem. =20
I think the next suggestion can do this a bit (do with it what you want):

What?:  A form that appaers on the screen before you log X times out (or=20
start) after installation.

Content:
FORM:
* An introduction (what is this and so on...).
* A remark that you can fill the form the best in in english, but that th=
is is=20
not required... You have to select in which language you will type the fo=
rm=20
so that some people can translate them in english(maybe best only the cor=
e to=20
spare time).
* Questions like: "What do you find of...?" and the answers whith=20
checkboxes,...
* These questions are up-to-date because the form has to generate it with=
=20
information from the internet.  So, the question of the week can be get m=
ore=20
response by this for example.
* A place where you can type (a) specific suggestion(s) for (a) program(s=
)=20
(that you can select in a list).
* By clicking on "Send" the form will be send on a secure connection to a=
=20
webpage.  It also have to be possible that the sender don't loose his pri=
vicy=20
if he wants this.
* The sender has to get response of his report by mail if he wants this.
* A lot of beautiful graphics and also a graphic of Konqi.
* A "Send", "Ok", and "Cancel" button.
* ...

WEBPAGE
* Every day/week the people that translate messages get a message that sa=
ys if=20
there are untranslated messages in their language(s) to translate, how ma=
ny=20
and a list with links to this messages. (maybe also a tool for this?)  Th=
e=20
tranlated messages appaers under the original messages.  It has to be pos=
ible=20
to respond online, close things,... like on the buglist now. =20
* The items with the checkboxes will be used to make statistics so that f=
or=20
example programmers know if people thinks (a part of) their program is go=
od=20
or not.
(*) The translated messages can be sorted and combined with other message=
s by=20
the usability-people to make Usability Reports.
* ...

RESPONDING
* Also there has to be a tool that get this messages from the web(a tar.g=
z=20
every day + newer messages not in a tar.gz to spare bandwith/cpu-power) s=
o=20
you can respond *offline* in a simple/cheap way. (in the form there has t=
o be=20
a link to this tool + explanation)
* ...

I think that all this would causes a better kde and get more users closer=
 to=20
kde.=20
