we want to redesign the YaST Control Center. Therefore we are looking for a radical new design.
Please feel free to contribute with mockups and (unconventional) ideas here: http://en.opensuse.org/YaST/Development/New_Control_Center
Looking at this mockup, it's almost identical to the "systemsettings" kcontrol replacement (will be default in kde4)[0] and also I believe the gnome app-browser.
I have not looked at how these are implemented, but using them for YaST could be as easy as putting the YaST module .desktop files in the correct places, and adding a few extra fields to the .desktop files. If so this could be the easiest ever major feature to implement.
Yup, those of us who have been around a bit longer know that YaST modules were once shown in the KDE Control Center treeview. It should be no big thing to load them into systemsettings too - it uses the same KCModuleProxy class as kcontrol. But what about the non KDE/Gnome YaST users? Do they stay with the existing controlcenter in this model?
