Would it make sense to create top tier categories for each of the components or functions of Gramps. Right now there is the Support category. But support for what? A user opens a new issue and others will offer their help and experiences. But a year from now, a new user comes here looking for answe…

Here’s a revised list for proposed subcategories under Support People Relationships Families Events Charts Places Sources, Citations & Repositories Media Notes Reports Filters Add-ons, Gramplets & Tools Import & Export Localization The Database I am not sure if “Localization” is the term we shoul…

An additional Category suggestion deals with New Features. Should this be a subcategory with the others above or its own top tier Category If you think this is the way we should proceed, please Like :heart: the post so we can get a sense of what the group wants.

Two other suggestions for categories are not specific to the Gramps software. Do we want to expand the discourse here to general genealogy discussions dealing with tips and techniques and the how-to of basic genealogy research. The other category suggested a category dedicated to discussions in la…

I’m wondering… isn’t this sorta like taking a step down the path of recreating the wiki? It seems like that would be a misstep. As much as the wiki has become chaotic and a fresh start seems appealing, it adds another layer of confusion for users already backsliding on our steep learning curve. (Th…

I like the idea of fewer categories.

It would be great if you could add a “Roadmap” category, where the features comming in next version would be listed… That way people wouldn’t easily find what was planned for next version… It do not need to list anything but new planned features or changes for Gramps…

Or we could just looks at the 3 places where such things are managed and look for ourselves. The GEPS list has the big design changes that require lots of discussion. You can see the narrower scope items by looking through the pulls on GitHub And the MantisBT bug tracker lists the things that hav…

@emyoulation Do you really think that new users are going to go through the GEPS list and try to figure out whats actually comming in the next version or do you think they will just make a new topic with a question ? 99% will just create a new question/topic and leave it to others to maintain the …

I’m sorry, but I thought this was a forum for all users and that everyone was welcome to come with suggestions, not only the few in the “inner circle”
