Combining the lists. I'd like to let this roll for awhile and see what everyone comes up with. Around a weeks time we can then prioritize what should be tackled first and find the right person for that job.
GUI related:GUI Browser support:
-We need an active worker to make sure this works on all major browsers. This is significantly important and I can not see why ALL proxies would not vote to make this happen. This alone is worth having
@svk on the payroll. SVK if this is something you can accomplish, how much do you need to make this happen?
GUI account creation: I know this is openledger specific but that is all we have right now
-I try to monitor the chat box on openledger and often see users still do not understand the relationship between openledger and bitshares. The comment "Your Web Browser is your Wallet" confuses people. In the chat box they ask if this is hosted, why do they need to backup etc... Something along the lines of "your web browser connects you to the bitshares blockchain via OpenLedger" could help clear this up. "Your wallet never leaves your web browser" could also strengthen the security concerns.
GUI Market Organization: I also see people confused on the now countless amount of markets available.
-Perhaps adding a filtering option where users can only view BitAsset markets?
-Simple shapeshift style guided trades. Have another tab at the top next to exchange, no graphs, just simple drop down boxes. Version 1 could have simply your assets on the drop down box on the left and what you want to receive on the right if that trading pair exists. Version 2 could automatically make multiple trades to get you what you want regardless of fee's/slippage.
-Is there a way to split the screen and have two markets open at once? I often check liquidity in similar markets, ie BTS/Steem vs BTC/Steem to see where it makes sense to trade.
Blockchain related:-Easy way to run/host bitshares blockchain locally. I see some documentation from Xeroc however is there a way we can provide pre packaged installations? We can mimic Bitcoin with their "core" compared to other wallet options. Windows/OSX/Linux/Raspberry PI options would be great.
https://steemit.com/bitshares/@ash/how-to-use-bitshares-via-the-interplanetary-file-system-ipfs is also interesting...
Sidechains:
-I think side chains are important and would be a huge move forward in relation to trust in the DEX; Smartcoins are great but making the user trust a 3rd parties to make good on the UIA that they are trading will always be a sore point for a 'trustless' decentralised exchange. UIA have their place but for trading other altcoins i think sidechained assets are important and at the moment would give us a big jump on the market.
Login for webwallets: I do recall Bitshares Munich talking about implementing this idea.
-Perhaps give the user the option with each one clearly detailed. Web based = less secure, log in from anywhere. Local based, most secure but must have backup file.
Worker related-Add worker proposal creation to the GUI. We may want to recommend posting the proposal on steemit to create synergy and a single source of information.
-Is there a way for users to get notification of new worker proposals without having to constantly check? A toggle switch for those interested in this would help.
-Can we add a data entry field where large proxies can put a reason why they vote approve/disapprove? A small field with a link to their reasoning?
Blockchain explorer-Continue development of Cryptofresh explorer. Anything specific to be added or maintained here?
