[Koha-devel] A few things you could do before I release of Koha 3.8

There's no way to "respectfully" use the term "bloatware."

> The "old" fitted nicely onto one screen without scrolling; for the "new" you

What are the dimensions of your browser window? It should be possible
to make it more flexible.

> Adding a new Marc record now requires 2 clicks instead of one.

True, if you do all your cataloging using the default framework.

The display of news is essentially unchanged in this version.

> Question:  can the css, templates etc from 3.6 be retained?  Or do the mods

The changes are primarily CSS-based with the exception of the removal
two links, "Add MARC record" and "System preferences."

> but do not see any advantages to this "P5 - low enhancement" bug.

"enhancement" being the informational part of that statement. The "P5
- low" aspect of the bug doesn't have any real meaning. Priority is
ignored.
