DetailsI'm sorry for posting this as a single issue while it probably should go in separate issues, but I currently don't have time to do it.
- I don't have way of getting an email when someone comments on a package I mantain, and hate having to enter the AUR page if I want to check if my packages are giving problems to other users. - I have to login every time I enter the page. No option to remember the login. - A date like "20080401" is quite unreadable - When I send a comment, upload a package or change the category, I get a useless message of "Comment sent". Would be better to show the package's page automatically again. - While I write a comment I can't see the previous comments. - The "(change category)" text near the "group::category" link is not a link. I see more logical to have a "group::category" text and a "(change category)" link. - Every single time I update a package I have to select the category again, which is kinda stupid. I'd rather a) Have a "update package" button on the package's page b) When uploading in the "Submit" page, don't process the category if I'm updating a package. Or at least, please, don't process it if I'm updating a package and the category is set to "none" (default) c) Remove the category menu from the Submit page. If it's the first time I'm uploading a package, prompt for category change. d) Intert the category in the PKGBUILD (unlikely, I suppose, but cleaner) - The "Sources" box in a package page is too thin. The three boxes seem to have a fixed width in pixels, while it would be probably better to have dynamic widths, as the URLs always end up wrapped in 7 pieces while there's a huge empty space at the right. - Section names seem a little misleading to me. Propposed names: Discussion -> Mailing list Accounts -> Account, or Profile - Maybe the Profile/Account/Accounts section could contain the list of packages I maintain, simplifying the section bar - Logout is not a section, the functionality of the button is not symmetric, I would put it near "Logged-in as:" |

Also:
- When I login while reading a package's page, I get redirected to the main page instead of the page I was reading.
you're perceiving things it may help lead to a better AUR.
The ideal for me would be something like this: "Feb 18 2009". I guess thats american, the european would be "18 Feb 2009"
Definately something that has 2009 in the end, not the start.
Anyway, as long as we don't have to count how many numbers are in "20080401" and try to manually parse them, I think it's quite fine. Is there a way to make the way of sorting dates depend on the user's language of choice?
dates appearing on the site.
They will appear like this:
