Hi,
First of all, I send this mail to the wrong address the first time by accident, my apologies for this. For some reason the Welcome e-mail for this mailing list starts with "Welcome to [EMAIL PROTECTED]" and that's were I clicked on to compose my e-mail.
Anyway...
Because you're in the process of changing the OOo site I though I might as well point a thing out that has been annoying me for a while.
The behaviour of logging in on the OOo site isn't as what can be expected of logging in on a site. Now if you login you get referred to the "My start page" page. This can become very annoying because if you spend some time browsing the OOo site and you have to log in at some stage you have to completely find your way back again to the page you where you were. Imo if you log in you should stay at the current page.
Uh well...this is something that is tied intrinsically to the functionality of SourceCast, the basic architecture platform of the site, and I it's not something we as web developers can change. This type of functionality is controlled by various servlets that are basically part of the internals I'm afraid. I see your point but it's not something we can mess with.
Ask youself the following: do the majority of the people realy go or want to go the "My start page" page when they log in?
If the "My start page" is important to people, I never use it, an extra link could be provided as soon as you login. Since there's already a main menu item reserved for this page e.g. an extra link on the location where the login input fields were, e.g. making the username clickable, would be sufficient.
Cheers,
Thanks for the feedback though.
Age
