''developers section definitely not a good place for popup windows''
''fine i was just trying to utilize space better then just having two lines of text on a page.''

''both mailing lists would be listed, along with documentation, wiki, etc.''
''I had documentation in the services area because i figured others then just the developers would be looking for it. Such as
clients that are not Developers, people just coming to the product to see what it was''

UI notes thoughts on changes: Mock ups can be seen here http://www.shinza.org/clients/freeside/software/view 

'''/Main Billing''' 

1. Can there be one search button that willautomatically understand what the customer is wanting to search from what the entered in the data fields? 
2. is the Example Co, suppose to be the same company that is branded with the logo. The client.. or is it a client of theirs? If it's the same company as the logo I'm not sure it needs to be there. It's already branded as their own.

'''/Ticketing Main:''' 

1. Ticketing main does not work on my end. Not Found. The requested URL /freeside/rt/ was not found on this server. 
2. New customer, just says select agent.. is it suppose to have more? 

'''Configuration/settings''' 

1. The right side of that colum really takes up more room then i think it needs. Can it be just the sections..such as hom (then have a pop up window explaing what that setting is for), then it will leave more room on a monitor for Required configuration options. Which on my computer doesn't stretch well currently and the menu bar doesn't line up well at all with the extra wide content. 
2. Are you totally against the use of frames for content that is so long? Or perhaps a floating javascript menu for ( [Required] [Billing] [Username] [Password] [UI] [Session] [Shell] [BIND] [Unclassified] [Deprecated] ) menu? 

'''/configuration/misc/'''
