Yes, that would be a good addition, but sadly is not so easy... if you have an idea of how to implement it, I would be happy to introduce it :) Cheers, Esteban On Aug 4, 2012, at 2:06 PM, GOUBIER Thierry <thierry.goubier@cea.fr> wrote:

Just thinking that the second tab of the Configuration Browser being called "Untrusted" is a bit harsh and not really socially engaging. "Community" has a better feel to me. And perhaps not "Configurations" for the first tab either, since both tabs are configurations. Perhaps "Core" or "Supported" or "Vetted" or "Gold" or something similar.
Also, what would be really fantastic would be some description of each configuration being displayed in a pane on the right hand side. There are A LOT of configurations listed there - which is great - but I don't feel inclined to go looking up every single one to see if they interest me. Sometimes what gets people interested in trying out new things is that it just catches their eye in casual browsing.
I guess a pre-requisite of that would be the ConfigurationOf file containing such a description, as well as perhaps something on the back end server that caches those descriptions into one file.
