I am more and more aware that XWiki needs some lifting in terms of design and usability.
The success of 37 Signals with BaseCamp, TadaList and now Writeboard shows that simplicity and great design allows to improve how people experience web applications.
My belief is that the future of web applications is by allowing modularity, great design and user experience but also integration between the different applications that people are using.
We believe XWiki has the archicture to provide this modularity and integration. Now we are missing great design and user experience in order to deliver this vision.
We had Thierry working during the summer on a usability report which is a great basis for improvement of the wiki interface.
We also want to build a set of easy to use application on top of the XWiki architecture.
One thing we need in order to deliver the right applications is design and user experience. If you are a designer or usability specialist and web applications and AJAX have not secret for you maybe there are things we can do together.
Don't hesitate to contact me.
