--- Comment #103 from Heather <heather_hernandez at nps.gov> ---
Hi!  Is https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/attachment.cgi?id=137408 the
latest update of the Main Menu?  It seems odd that "Lists" is now on a line
with "Advanced Search" and "Item Search," since Lists is very much tied to
one's login--it takes one to one's own lists & the lists one has access to.

I like Reports being moved to a column with Tools and Administration.  But the
"About Koha" logo seems out of place here--should it be next to the Koha logo
at the center bottom of the screen?

I know this is probably only a dream at this point, but it would be great for
the user to be able to click/tap-and-drag these buttons to a custom layout
based on their login, and to hide less often used ones.  I'd have my top
buttons be Cataloging, Authorities, Advanced Search, and Item Search, with my
second row of buttons being Serials, Reports, Tools, Administration, and I'd
hide the Acquisitions button (and access the module via the pull-down menus at
the top).

There's a lovely typo in the pull-down menus at the top, "Catalogage." 
Although I do adore the idea that this makes cataloging seem more en-gaging, it
should probably match the button that says "Cataloging."  And while I'm at it,
can we please standardize Catalog vs. Catalogue, and Cataloging vs.
Cataloguing?  Can we just put the "u" in or leave it out everywhere?  I'd say
put it in, and drag we USians into the spelling of the international community!
 (Next let's work on making us metric.:) )

"Selections pending approval" at the bottom of the left column would be ignored
at my library, and would get pushed down by staff client news.  It's something
that needs paying attention to--it's a, "Hey!  You!  You need to take care of
this!" item, so although I like it over in the column, I'd put it at the top in
an alert color, or prefaced with the login name to catch the eye of the user,
e.g., for me, "Hello, Heather!  Suggestions pending approval..."

I don't have any comments yet on other areas--I don't really use the Basic Bib
Editor, but am eager to see what the Advanced Editor and/or Authorities might
look like.

Lovely work!!  So exciting!
