@dazz - your comments are probably spot on for a company director/manager with employees. And as a former manager / project manager I can agree with your comments. But the world is much different on this side of the equation.
For a small volunteer driven organization (like IPFire), with people that have days jobs, and can only “volunteer” a hour to two a day - the recipe for success is much different.
Here, I am sure the #1 priority is security. The #2 priority is support of various issues that pop up on a daily basis. As you have noticed there is no 10% of resources to help with WebGUI. And doing the math - 10% of a really small number is a much smaller number.
You seem to know lots of people with lots of skills. Can one of them assist in helping the WebGUI?
