: Please make sure to use the 3.0b1pre nightlies as a reference for your proposals, ''not'' the current 2.0.0.x releases. --[[User:Rsx11m|Rsx11m]] 04:57, 16 August 2008 (UTC) | :: I'm not quite sure what your intent for the "New/Depreciated" section is, meaning, what exactly should it track? Assuming that everybody uses the current nightlies as a reference, as recommended below, such changes would be obvious at the current stage. It would only become relevant when specific panes are (re-)designed, and any options become depreciated or are added by other bugs afterwards, which would require a respective adaption of that pane. This would be local to the pane in question though, thus not needed as a global section. If you want to follow any additions, removals, or changes of preferences since the 1.8.1 branch was established, you would need to add a lot more bugs than just the most recent one. --[[User:Rsx11m|Rsx11m]] 00:54, 21 August 2008 (UTC) | ||

I do not see any major issues with the proposed changes (other than the size of the windows). Are there any major issues that should be addressed before we move to milestone 2? Or, should we consider this milestone 1 Version 1, and work on Milestone 1 Version 2 (with adjustment made for the windows size issue). | I do not see any major issues with the proposed changes (other than the size of the windows).

: There appears to be consensus on that the primary preferences should be collected in individual panes without multiple tabs, and that secondary preferences should be in an Advanced pane with multiple tabs. I would not sign off on the absolute number of tabs needed at this time, which depends on the overall "filling" strategy I tried to motivate in my 04:54, 16 August 2008 comment, and any removal or addition of preferences. --[[User:Rsx11m|Rsx11m]] 00:54, 21 August 2008 (UTC) | |||
