It's 30 mins into the New Year for me and that means it's time for you all to give us your 2008 wishlist for SDN and BPX! Just reply and type away - interesting ones will open a new thread for comments otherwise please keep this thread clean to only one entry per person!
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!! From the Whole of the Community Network team!
Hello,
Is it possible to move the "Mark all threads as read" command to someplace where it can't be clicked by accident? Or is it possible to add another dialog pop-up (like: Are you sure) to it, so that if someone happens to click on it, it gives you a second chance?
Thanks!

I have a 2009 wish.
Can we have a forum for SAP Outlooksoft ? My company has been using Outlooksoft for FI and Planning for past many years. Since we have SAP HCM in place and Outlooksoft is now a SAP product, the top bosses want to know when can we start doing Headcount reporting in Outlooksoft. I was looking for information all over the web (integration between SAP HCM and Outlooksoft)and didnt find many.
Thanks
Rinky

The answer to that wish is pretty standard. Get critical mass, meaning have a large number of community members create the request in the forum for suggestions as a thread that others can comment on. When we have a large enough request with a broad enough scope of community "supporters" we try to accomodate. It also helps to have moderator or Product Manager support and buy-in so that there are SAP folks supporting this idea as well.
Having broad support means folks from different companies, geographic locations in most cases so no "stuffing the ballot".
I wish for a 2009 Wishlist

Just a little and (hopefully easy to realize) wish:
Please make the national flags in the user business cards click-able so that they link to the corresponding entry in e.g. Wikipedia.
Or, if this creates problems that I've not anticipated yet, add a description text to the little picture, stating the name of the nation the flag stands for.
Unfortunately I don't know how every flag of the world would look like in that micro-size format and personally I find it quite interesting, where other users come from.
regards,
Lars

Two workarounds:
Right-click on the flag -> properties - you may need to select the URL to make it scroll all the way to the end - and the filename is always the country ISO code - e.g. GB.gif.
Flags.net has an excellent [search facility|http://www.flags.net/search.php] which is much more fun.
I agree though it would be nice to at least have an ALT text so that hovering the mouse over the image would bring up the country name.
Please don't make me have to scroll all the way down the page to find the horizontal scrollbar in the forums (see [here|/thread/932758 [original link is broken] ] for example).
If I need to scroll left & right, the scrollbar should be there on screen for me. None of this IFRAME nonsense.
Cheers,
Darren

Hi,
We had a section Complete List of top contributors, this showed all time points for all the toppers.
I don't find it anymore, that was really encouraging and helped to find the top contributors/specialists. This enabled to read their posts, blogs....
There people perform excellently in forums but might not be brought into limelight if you consider the whole category they may not be in top list. We can't blame them because their area of expertise is to that forum and depends on the total posts in that particular forum.
Reinstating this complete list of toppers would encourage and help many people.
Please reinstate the same. This is my Wish to my good Genie
Many Thanks.

Hmmm, a wishlist!
I'm still hoping the search function of the forum will be enhanced, as (for example) I'd like to be able to search for specific topics in specific subforums and also exclude some other subforums from my search.
There's still so much as of yet untapped potential there.
Thanks,
Roland

I just want a bigger typeface on the blogs etc so I don't have trouble reading them on the massive screens I use (1280*800)
I know I can make them bigger in the browser but then the frame puts a scroll bar
down the side and bits get obscured.
Thanks

I would like some discussions round the optimal personnel structure to support a SAP ERP (and SOA) environment. Items to address will be the traditional System Analyst vs. Business Analyst (do they still exist and where to they report - business or IT).
Another area would be if you manage all SAP installations under one "flag" or do you still have a separate team for e.g. BW. Do you manage reporting separate or within modules?
So, for me it is all about optimal personnel structure within IT Business Systems environment.

Is anybody else getting sick of the spam responses we get to our questions here on SDN? I see people asking reasonable questions and 75% of the time somebody will respond to the thread with an uneducated / non-researched response that sounds something like:
O helloo blah blah use transaction XQ34 (which doesn't exist). Plz reward points if useful.
Clearly these spam responses are from people trying to respond to as many questions as possible with the least amount of work in each answer in order to accumulate maximum points.
My 2008 wish is a digg-esque (www.digg.com) way to 'digg up' and 'digg down' threads and thread responses. I find a lot of the threads on SDN are getting extremely spammy and one way to cut down on this would be to allow the community to 'digg down' spam responses given to legit questions, or to digg down spam threads.
Perhaps instead of points, positive 'diggs' could be used.
That's my wish!

May the year 2008 be a year of lead and learn for our community and its members beyond software innovation and program development. Let it be a year of activism where each member commits and contributes to feeding knowledge not only in the more conventional pursuit of development knowledge that we do well here, but by all of us working to surpass our target community contributions and enabling us all to create an amazing maximum award allocation to the [SAP Feeding Knowledge Program.|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/weblogs?blog=/pub/wlg/7898] [original link is broken] [original link is broken] [original link is broken]; May the by-product of our collective examinations of [Corporate Social Responsibility and Sustainability |https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/bpx-csr]be the creation of better standards and guidelines for accountability, transparency and integrity for all of our companies, customers and partners and may that area gain global attention.

Happy, healthy 2008 for all of our members within and beyond our immediate SAP ecosystem.
