We're looking to see if we can include you in the Horizon Usability Test -- stay tuned. The survey was just a screener to finding participants for the Horizon Usability Test, which the initial targeted participant was the Cloud End User.</div><div><br></div><div>As an operator, I suspect you fit more into the Cloud Administrator user category. That being said, we would be delighted to have a discussion with you regarding the OpenStack UX challenges -- whether they are first or secondhand -- you've experienced. I'll reach out to you offline to schedule this.</div><div><br></div><div>Thank you again for your interest in helping to drive forward the UX,</div><div>Ju Lim</div><div><br></div><hr id="zwchr"><div style="color:#000;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-decoration:none;font-family:Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:12pt;" data-mce-style="color: #000; font-weight: normal; font-style: normal; text-decoration: none; font-family: Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><b>From: </b>"Scott Devoid" <devoid@anl.gov><br><b>To: </b>"Ju Lim" <julim@redhat.com><br><b>Cc: </b>openstack-operators@lists.openstack.org, "Piet Kruithof" <pieter.c.kruithof-jr@hp.com><br><b>Sent: </b>Wednesday, February 26, 2014 1:29:53 PM<br><b>Subject: </b>Re: [Openstack-operators] Horizon Usability Testing -- Participants Needed<br><div><br></div><div dir="ltr"><p class="">I submitted a survey response; hopefully you will find my answers useful, but if you need more detail please ask. The survey seems to be directed at forming profiles of "typical" users. Aren't these profiles already addressed by the general User Survey? I was expecting to see direct UX / UI questions relating to Horizon or the CLI. Are there plans to do these in the future?</p><p class="">As an operator, I have several personal and secondhand stories of UX issues.
