[GRASS-user] GRASS selected for Season of Usability 2008!

[Tim Michelsen]

Dear GRASS users!

GRASS has been selected as one of the projects to be supported by this 
years
Season of Usability:
http://season.openusability.org/

This means that we will get a review of the GRASS workflow and GUIs by 
approved and internationally well known usability experts.
We will soon get in touch with our mentor.

It would be very helpful for us if you could enter you own view of the 
current usability show stoppers and areas of improvement here:

The current usability show-stoppers - 
http://grass.gdf-hannover.de/wiki/Usability#The_current_usability_show-stoppers

Since I am not a developer nor a everyday user of GRASS I'd like to 
addess especially to:
- teachers
- new GRASS users

Please tell us your perceptions!

Thanks in advance & we'll keep you posted.

Kind regards,
Timmie

P.S. Although I am writing a crosspost I think we should keep the main 
discussion on this thread at the GRASS users list.
More development related things will be sent to the devel list.
