+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; sorry but who is supposed to use mageia-app-db ? power users ? dev ?
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; casual/normal users ?
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; Samuel said that the application must be useful both for newbies and power
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; users
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> ok for power users, but for normal users the Ui is too cluttered
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> [remember that this is only a first mockup made by me (the developer is
+</I>&gt;<i> Samuel), my goal is to provide to him all the most interesting infos and ideas
+</I>&gt;<i> to develop the app as best as possible.]
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> 1. left pane : Release Alpha vs Cauldron ? for a normal user, this
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> means pretty nothing. If the user is looking for an
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> application/package, then don't talk about release or repositories.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> well, if you have mandriva installed, do you think you don't know what release
+</I>&gt;<i> is? alpha release vs. cauldron could be &quot;Mageia 2011&quot; and &quot;Mageia 2012&quot;
+</I>
+whereas eventually I may know about release ( Mageia 2011 ), I may not
+know about updates/backports/testing/....
+What's the point fo browsing by release ? It's an application
+database, so you should browse by applications.
+
+&gt;&gt;<i> What about using instead rpm categories, and then display theses kind
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> of information in the package infos
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> do you mean showing only &quot;amarok&quot; field and when you get into it you'll
+</I>&gt;<i> download different versions depending on the release installed? it can be an
+</I>&gt;<i> interesting idea.
+</I>
+first I see the main categories : Office, Sound &amp; Video, Tools, ...
+Then the sub-category and then the application :
+Sound &amp; Video -&gt; Sound -&gt; Amarok
+The left pane should only show categories, the application list will
+be displayed in the center pane.
+
+See tthe way you navigate in this :
+<A HREF="http://download.cnet.com/windows/mp3-and-audio-software/?tag=rb_content;contentNav">http://download.cnet.com/windows/mp3-and-audio-software/?tag=rb_content;contentNav</A>
+
+&gt;&gt;<i> 2. right pane : Alpha vs Beta ?
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> also here, i mean something like this: &quot;Mageia 2011&quot; and &quot;Mageia 2012&quot;
+</I>
+this won't scale when you will have more and more release, except if
+you plan to show only 2 releases, and so to support a mandriva release
+only during 2 releases cycles.
