Thanks,

Somewhere in the forums I read that the current UI is a 'task-based' system. One needs to understand the underlying datamodel to recognize the next task in the sequence. One good thing is that it is pretty forgiving and bad decisions can be undone.

I will try using some other popular CMS's and identify some common goals/tasks that may be used as a starting point.

On my system (4.6.2) there were some small anomalities (ie. when you create a workflow all parties are added to the authoring workflow, small errors in adp pages that error out when trying to generate forms) that makes the UI even harder to understand for a novice like me. I have resolved most of these (but since CMS is deprecated and people are busy trying to clear bugs) i'm not putting it into the bugtracker.

Let us know when you are ready.
