[TYPO3-hci] amount and frequency of changes in BE

[Tolleiv.Nietsch]

Hi,

I have to disagree. The success of TYPO3 which we saw in the past won't 
make it to the future without change. And especially usability was one 
of the weakest points of TYPO3.

Many things were inconsistent and old TYPO3 packages brought bad default 
settings. This changed in the last releases and that's good. Even if old 
users have to rethink their routines, they can rely that the backend 
gets more and more consistent and in new versions the systems can be 
build based on good defaults. It doesn't make sense to keep bad things 
longer than necessarily needed therefore the changes are good.

Changing towards (much) better usability is a REAL improvement and most 
likely one of the most importants ones we have in 4.5.

Btw. if your clients don't like new features - you're still able to 
create skins, configure icons and setup TCE field-positions. And of 
course the entire process is not done behind closed doors so you're able 
to review and commend any change before the release.

Cheers,
Tolleiv
