Open Stack

It looks like there was a lot of activity on the UX project last fall but not much since. I'm confused by things like horizon-ia-improvement in the UX launchpad<https://blueprints.launchpad.net/openstack-ux/+spec/horizon-navigation-enhancement> and navigation-enhancement in Horizon<https://blueprints.launchpad.net/horizon/+spec/navigation-enhancement>. What's the difference between these two? I think UX should be it's own project for sure, but what do we do about redundancies like this? How do we make it easier so new designers can pick up work and be confident the blueprint they are working on isn't outdated or duplicated in a different project? Also, how can we prioritize the blueprints to help people select the work that is most needed?

I'm asking these questions generally, but also for myself, as I'm finding it hard to figure out what's what!

I’m wondering whether we should change the name to the UX Project since the scope of the team is slowly evolving into other areas (such as usability).  For example, I’m thinking that we may want to a Card Sort to understand how users conceptualize the Horizon info architecture.

There is already a UX project in launchpad that we should take advantage of here. I think it’s the first step to get everyone working on UX stuff together :)

https://blueprints.launchpad.net/openstack-ux

You’ll notice there are already blueprints for the work we had planned to do early on for horizon personas, triple personas, and user community testing. Additionally there are blueprints for things that we’ve talked about like IA improvements and navigation enhancements are already here. Please feel free to edit these blueprints or take ownership of anything that you might be working on that doesn’t have an owner.

Thanks,
Liz

Hi,

Would there be interest in having a personas project in Launchpad?

This would have a few benefits:
* Source control to version control the various documents we'll be
working on
* Bug tracker to enable issue tracking
* Committers would be considered ATCs and get Design Summit invitations
and free Summit passes, where we can attend & evangelise Personas to
developers

Using Launchpad for the third benefit is kind of a hack - there's no
good way to get official recognition of time & effort spent working on
personas (and other non-technical subject areas like marketing,
documentation), but using source control to track things provides a nice
easy way to do so.

Anyone interested? If so, anyone know what's involved?

Thanks,
Dave.
