<div>Hi all<br>
<br>
</div>
I have felt some grumblings about usability issues with Heat templates/client/etc..<br>
</div>
and wanted a way that users could come and give us feedback easily (low barrier). I started an etherpad (<a href="https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/heat-useablity-improvements" target="_blank">https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/heat-useablity-improvements</a>)
- the first win is it is spelt wrong :-O<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>We now have some great feedback there in a very short time, most of this we should be able to solve.<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>This lead me to think, "should OpenStack have a more general mechanism for users to provide feedback". The idea is this is not for bugs or support, but for users to express pain points, requests for features and docs/howtos.<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>It's not easy to improve your software unless you are listening to your users.<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>Ideas?<br>
