 * In the file wp-admin/edit-form.php there is some css. i don’t think that’s the
   correct place. Something to correct for the developers.
    around line 49: ` <style
   media="screen" type="text/css"> #titlediv, #postpassworddiv { height: 3.5em; }
   </style>

 * It is not just there. There are other places too where there is CSS code in the
   middle of php code and so on. I think that it is nog good that way.
    And some
   tags have div around it, without id tags or so. So you have to go and change 
   the basic code to add them. These are also things who aren’t good in my opinion.

 * I know, that’s the reason why I post this here. 🙂
    Is there some bugtrack system
   or so? Or is this the best way?

 * These are not bugs. The CSS is put in there. Once everybody is satisfied with
   it it goes in the CSS.

 * CSS belongs in CSS files, not in PHP files. If styling elements are included 
   with the PHP that means they cannot be controlled through wp-admin.css, therefore
   it is a bug. 🙂

 * It’s a bug if it causes problems.
    It’s an untested feature right now.

 * You’re right, this are not bugs.
    I think WordPress is a great peace of code.
   But I think it would be nice to rewrite it from the beginning when the developers
   start to develop version 2. I hope I can say this here. It is typical code for
   something that grows from the beginning. The same happened to Gallery, the fotoalbum.
   I just start an open discussion, nothing more. 🙂

 * Well everything in index.php is supposed to be controlled through wp-layout.css,
   so I would expect that eventually everything in the backend will be controlled
   through wp-admin.css. It will help the devs achieve this if rogue presentational
   elements in the source code can be identified and moved.
    Bug reporting is not
   the same as criticising the software, it is an attempt to make it _better_ and
   as such should be encouraged rather than condemned.

 * Is there a page where I can see what’s the roadmap for WordPress? What is coming
   in the next releases and so on? I only found this:

 * Check the DevBlog at the top, and the Changelog in the Wiki.
    There’s no roadmap
   as such though.
