User Interface

With it's 6th version, Drupal was unveiled with some very welcoming improvements in usability, and if you ask me.. it's about time! As a new Drupal user ( after all, I've known about Drupal for only a year.. ) I would have to say that the usability done in Drupal 5 was only fulfilling the minimum requirements that were needed.

A great example would be in regards to form submission during content creation: a never-ending journey of page scrolling. In my opinion, the majority of contributed modules end their development when functionality is completed. Generally, a very small amount of time is dedicated into improving the user experience.

Now that contributed modules and their functionality are becoming more complex, the packaging of a good UI is not just an added featured anymore but is becoming mandatory.
