			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>10 days after... I already received insightful early feedbacks. Well, to sum it up, it would not have been bad... had I not let a bug slip into the debian package of savemyconf-client which prevented it from installing on a freshly installed system! Hopefully, this highly critical problem should now be solved.</p>
<p>Besides that, here are a selection of feedbacks I wanted to blog about today:</p>
<ul>
<li><em>Having only Linux Ubuntu Hardy as supported operating system is a bit restrictive</em>. I guess this is right but it happens that Ubuntu is my primary operating system so it made sense for me to support Ubuntu. Also, this is probably the system I know best so it was easier for me to begin implementing SaveMyConf for Ubuntu. Anyway, for an alpha version, I think this is not much of a problem... I'll try to have more systems supported for v1!</li>
<li><em>Not being able to release a website compatible with all browsers is just ridiculous</em>. Indeed, IE is really really badly supported. Blame my small web design experience for this one (and my laziness for not testing regularly with IE). I realized too late that my site was a complete mess on IE (even IE7 has problems). As it was a bit late and as Windows is just not yet supported as an operating system, I decided to release anyway and to put warning messages for people visiting savemyconf with a browser that is basically not firefox. I promise browser compatibility will be a lot enhanced in the next release...</li>
<li><em>The back button of my browser does not work</em>. Right, again, I realized this too late. The modifications required would have required too much refactoring so this will be solved for the next release.</li>
<li><em>Your double entry navigation system [ndlr: left to choose the machine and top to choose the action] is a bit confusing</em>. Concerning this one, I don't know... I don't have enough feedback to judge yet but it might be true. I wanted to innovate a little bit but I must admit that it might be confusing for <em>normal</em> people. I need more feedback on this one.. What do you think?</li>
<li><em>In terms of SEO, your site sucks because google can only view 1 page</em>. True, savemyconf relies a lot on javascript (the whole navigation is ajaxified) and I now realize that I might have gone too far in this direction. I will probably moderate my use of Ajax for the next version to have a more Google / Lynx friendly website.</li>
</ul>
<p>That's all I can think of right now, please keep the feedbacks coming! They are what will make the next version suck less <img src='http://thibauld.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p><em>PS</em>: As it might help someone else, here is a few more details on my packaging problem: I actually mistook with one build-dependency version which caused the package to miserably fail installing. It came from the following line in the debian/control file of my package:</p>
<p><code>Build-Depends: cdbs (&gt;=0.4.49), debhelper (&gt;= 5), python-central (&gt;= 0.6)</code></p>
<p>The python-central dependency version was wrong, I changed 0.6 to 0.5.6 to solve the problem of my package not installing on a fresh Ubuntu Hardy (8.04).</p>
