Last time I contemplated a PC for my grandma it boiled down to one feature (call somebody) and no GUI whatsoever except big pictures of faces of people in her address book on the desktop - clickable - hit the image of a person to dial and one button to hang up. plus some hidden processes to check uplink and pc status.
Once she would 'master' the call feature, another one would be added (like view weather forecast or the cantina menu) adding another button (switch between phone and this new feature). Not sure about the target audience of OT client but what about reasonable expectations? sort features into a learning path and hide the irrelevant stuff at the beginning.

We now also have a OTdemo demo/test server, see https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/otdemo-open-transactions-server-to-the-rescue-117080
do you also collect test cases etc?
https://github.com/FellowTraveler/Open-Transactions/wiki/Use-Cases
seen that already?
me not. I posted a question if someone works on QA and wanted to look into testing of things, automate them and stuff but it's 'moving slowly'
What did you have in mind in particular ... there is a lot of sample user data data out there demonstrating server contracts, asset contracts, mulitple Nym wallets, basket currency contracts and etc ...
exactly things like that, and do this for every release candidate, and preferably also night builds should be tested.
- checking if all functionality is available and working after each sw change
- compare contracts, wallets, ious created 'now' with samples from old 'good' versions - should produce same results
- list of functionality to be covered by tests/testing

mila : are you saying you could do this? ... or that this is what needs to be done?
between the lines I volunteered. to start breaking it down to doable and measurable things, it
- needs to be done
- needs to be done repeatedly for each build or at least release candidate
- needs to be maintained (test cases, test data, etc)
I could do this. most probably open source it and tutor any other volunteer who'd join the QA
Would this be under GPL/AGPL or some other license? (Maybe the pledgees would like to own it?)
The OP only specifies "open source", so any free license (or public domain) should be acceptable. The author would retain copyright, and my tiny pledge has no problems with them selling additional commercial licenses too.
Anyone working on this? I can do it, but I don't want to waste my time if someone else already started work.

Also, what are you looking for - desktop Windows client? Crossplat java client? A JS based web client? Can be designed so private stuff don't travel to a 3rd party server.

A cross-platform java client would be best. We have a Java test GUI already but it's just that: a test GUI, not a real client. Therefore we need at least one NICE client that runs on ALL platforms.
As for the JS web client, how secure can that be, and will it require a browser plugin for the OT client DLL ? Just curious how that would work.

Ideally something like BitcoinQT, a cross-platform QT client. The next big project first is the proting of the chaiscript high-level api, to C++. Once that is built, building a C++ GUI should be trivial.

I just don't have enough money to donate what I think this project is worth.
Actually, now I'd like to pledge 3 BTC. I know it's next to nothing, but that's better than actually nothing and I hate being all talk.Fortunately, I'll only have to annoy you with tiny pledges this one last time. After this bounty is fulfilled we can just do them automatically with OT.

I read somewhere that he said he was going to forward it.
somewhere is 5 post above yours.https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.1250847
Yeah I figured someone might pick up on that sarcasm
