Hey everybody.

on the subject of GSOC -

I am VERY impressed with the progress of hugin in the last year.
finally it is for the most part an enjoyable program to use.

However the UI / UX still has IMO many issues that need to be
resolved.

I know these things are boring for many of the kinds of people who
want to get their hands dirty in control point generators and stuff
like that, but it's still important. No, I am not in a position to
help with this kind of stuff, not currently anyway (maybe next year?)

I just wanted to bring up what I think is still a very important
issue.

cheers,
Jeffrey
