I note that development is still underway so here are a few suggestions

it may be worth it for boonex developers to google "mixi" and look at their structure. It is the Japanese dominant social networking site (I will be able to provide a generic login detail if Boonex developers need it). It has

1. collapsable and
2. movable boxes etc which in my perspective, is needed for Dolphin 7 to allow for the user to define how their profile looks.
3. Advanced usabiliy (from the member see more perspective) and ability to allow for advert revenue (for Mixi's perpective).

Also

4. allowing users to add css to their profile page as well as backgrounds etc... eg friendster and myspace

other points include

5. looking into the current complicated navigation system (dol 1.4). I do NOT find it complicated but less experienced webbers do find it complicated as all users of my site have stated so.

It is worth looking at the end user's perspective. People who buy the software from boonex (or use boonex products) are NOT the end user but are the service providers to the end user (the members of our individual communities). We buy boonex software because we intend to provide a flexible system to our members (aka end users) and although Dolphin is remarkable, it takes a keen end user to really master it (ie add blog, video, music, events, navigating through a site, etc) because at its current state/structure it is not as end-user friendly as other software/systems that power other SNS sites. This (I note from comments from my interviews with my users) has reduces the incentive for end users to return to the site.

Ray currently does not allow Japanese font to be input into its chat (via the standard way) so this excludes the Chinese and Japanese end users. This needs to be looked into as China is a major part of the world. I have tested the chat using Chinese/japanese characters and it does not allow it however, using other methods, one can input text to chat but such methods are not the norm for PC users in these countries and therefore acts as a disincentive to use ray chat.

I hope this helps. I am available for more information if needed Unoboonex.
