Open Stack

Debo,
I've seen the curvature demo - it's really good stuff!

There is a UX working group getting started right now - it's called the Personas Working Group, but it's evolving to be more of a general UX group. You should get involved!

I think this is a valid point and we should do something in the UX space. 1.5yrs ago, we wanted to explore UX issues and wrote a tool called Curvature and did some UX experiments - will dig up our draft paper and post. For now the demo is at https://www.openstack.org/summit/portland-2013/session-videos/presentation/interactive-visual-orchestration-with-curvature-and-donabe .... we open sourced our "app" written in rails and one of the interns contributed a bunch of stuff into Horizon. https://github.com/CiscoSystems/curvature

I am up for a UX working group.

Hello,
I was looking at the Upstream Training (https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/OpenStack_Upstream_Training/Info) and I'm wondering how much of the content is directed at people who want to or are currently contributing user experience work - whether that is API design, UI design, user research and requirements development? Is it worthwhile for these people to attend? And if not, if this content doesn't exist yet, how might we get it included in the future?

Being new to OpenStack, there's an obvious need for UX and design work, but the number of contributors is small and it is quite difficult to get started because the process isn't well defined.

Thanks
