Forum OpenACS Development: Re: FYI: Errors upgrading ]po[ from OpenACS 5.9.0 to 5.9.1

Hi Maurizio,

I'm 100% with you if terns if the ugliness of the ]po[ GUI.
And I believe you are right, the vast majority of customers buy ]po[ because of functionality and not because of prettiness.

I recently somewhere (I don't remember unfortunately) read about ERP software:

- Either it's new, then it has has a sexy GUI according to current fashion trends, but is incomplete.
- Or it's old, ugly, but has everything the business needs.

I believe that's great and really summarizes the dilemma. And ]po[ is clearly on the ugly side.

I really like your proposal, so I've copied the relevant parts to a new post here:
https://openacs.org/forums/message-view?message_id=5467001

I propose to continue GUI related discussion there and keep this thread for OpenACS 5.9.1 stuff...

Cheers
Frank
