Petition AGAINST the 5 new templates at Telnic

by Sunrise 2013-03-30, 5:18 pm

Telnic is planning to introduce 5 new templates that are identically with the existing templates:
http://www.teltalk.org/t1004p16-new-templates-today#6668

Herewith I raise a plea for not implementing these 5 new templates because of the following reasons:

The new templates were not coordinated with the community.
5 more useless templates increase the confusion for all users.
The new templates add no value to .tel websites, because there is almost no difference (if any) to the existing templates.
Nobody asked for these templates.
Instead creative and helpful templates don’t get developed.
Important developments (picture administration and roadmap) get neglected.
Nobody else besides Telnic is allowed to develop (nicer) templates.

But they already were implemented some time ago.

They are not available in the control panel yet, but Telnic is preparing them.
Let's prevent this idiocy!

It's easy to complicate things unnecessarily - the real skill is in simplifying any user interface !
