Hi all,

as I now launched a new instance to test the Identity Management GE, I 
noticed some things again that could be improved, I think I haven't sent 
you this list yet. Please forward accordingly.


1. At some input fields, names have to be given. It is unclear which 
characters are allowed until a wrong one is rejected with an error 
message, e.g. 'Error: Wrong values for Keypair. Please try again.'
Please include e.g. an info icon with a tooltip text describing what 
characters are allowed, plus maybe a few valid examples.

2. VNC is not working or it is not obvious how to enable it. Do I have 
to install it and run it on the instance? Which firewall settings are 
necessary?

3. Not only experts may use this, please explain some acronyms like 
'CIDR' in the security group settings.

4. typo at login screen:
  'Forgot you password?' --> 'Forgot your password?'

5. typo when launching an instance:
  'Launch Instances' --> 'Launch Instance'

6. It might be useful to describe how to convert the .pem files to .ppk 
files or already provide a converted file for download.

Best regards,
   Marcel Lancelle
