I'd like to have a more usable "Extensions Directory"
1°) For instance, in the Avanced search I'd like to filter on several License type at once :
GNU/GPL _and_ BSD _and_ Other open source/Free license
2°) The Joomla Compatibility (1.0 - 1.5) could be shown under the type on the listing of a category's extension.
3°) It would be nice to be able to set a permanent (session) filter while browsing the Directory.
Let suppose I want to see what free extensions I have for Joomla 1.5. It is really a pain to day :
I get all Joomla 1.5 extensions (all mixed, making it difficult to compare within a category)
and have to do it 3 times (see 1°). This is not efficient and very time consuming.
Thanks for the recent improvements.
This post is only intended to encourage to go further.
Wishes for a better usability of the "Extensions Directory"

Hi Pachat,
Thanks for your feedback and suggestions
We really do appreciate feedback from the users of JED, and the sum of feedback help us to keep improving JED.
1) Makes sence. Today this is not possible, but could be a future improvement.
2) As we get closer to 1.5 stable release, we will think hard to find a better approach to differ between 1.0.x and 1.5.x series. This suggestion of yours could be one of them.
