Hi all, Martin, Martin and myself just brainstormed a bit about a new structure for the menus on the web interface, as they are getting quite cluttered and are IMHO not very intuitive. Here is what we've come up with:
Tasks / Home[1] Request Certificate Signing Request Smartcard personalization Certificate Revocation Request Bulk certificate request [CRL issuance] Download My certificates CA certificates Certificate Revocation Lists (CRLs) Policy Documents [Approval] Pending CSRs Pending CRRs Search Search certificates Search workflows Logout[2] [1]: Tasks/Home should show the most important information for the user. For a "normal" user, it is supposed to be called "Home", for a registration officer or CA operator, it is supposed to be called "Tasks". The user is shown the list of workflows created by him here (just like on the index page after login at the moment). A registration officer will be shown the last n pending CSRs and CRRs with the option to page. The CA Operator will be shown the key status here. [2]: We've also been thinking about replacing the logout menu entry with a symbol to be put in the top area, but we have not yet come up with a universal one (an exit door? a power symbol?) ... The menus/entries in square brackets are only shown to registration officers or CA Operators (in the CRL issuance case). The language menu should be replaced by flags in the top area. The CA chains can (and should) be visualized more clearly in the CA certificates list (for example by showing them from top to bottom in the table with links to the certificate download page). The OpenXPKI logo should IMHO point to the application root instead of http://www.openxpki.org. I believe this should clear up our interface quite a bit - let me know what you think about it ...
