Yeah, it looks good. Just one note. Web service should be
stateless as
you cannot restrict what user do (all attempt more or less fail). So
example that setting sound in three steps or adding DNS in three steps
is not good. It is common, that user set part and that part is
immediately save. If we don't do this in this step we could have
serious
problems during unexpected user actions. So if we need add
something in
more steps, then I think we should prefer have necessary settings
in one
screen and set rest after add on separate page which immediately save.
Mhm. Couldn`t the values be cached somehow?
Maybe someone with more detailed technical knowledge than me can
comment this?
In general I think, skipping wizards completely would decrease
usability a lot :-(
So I hope that only wizard is base system settings, which save
settings
after each step, so it is not real wizard as we know from yast, it is
just settings of necessary steps.
It seems so :-)
Cu,
Martin
