I would love to see some of the UI issues addressed by GSOC coders. Here’s hoping.

A modern UI would be fabulous, and I really hope it gets worked on for GSOC, but command line tools provide a whole lot of speed and power for users who are comfortable with them.

I’ve linked back to this post from the Fedora Google Summer of Code Ideas page: https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/GSOC/Fedora+Summer+of+Code+Ideas

I’ve always found the Flash admin tool underpowered and awkward; this puts a finer point on it.

I’m hoping the ‘modern UI’ project is worked on a bit for Google Summer of Code, although other projects seems just as important:

And I should probably use the command line tools a lot more. Especially for finding objects.
