Notes
Colin
- High level overview of ongoing projects

- Need to start thinking about new components to feed into dev process
Daphne
- Diagram of how the User Research will feed into component development
- Top down research supporting bottom-up development
Reorderer

User Research Project Plan
http://wiki.fluidproject.org/display/fluid/Research+Project+Plan
- How do we carry this out, who will be working on it?
- Perhaps 3 or 4 designers from different institutions
- How do we research Sakai and Uportal at the same time
- Do they have the same personas and scenarios and personas
- Is there enough overlap between them, or is it really 2 different projects?
How to prioritize the work, next steps?
- Should we break out into smaller groups, or should everyone be involved in all activities?
- Still looking for a project manager to help with co-ordination
How to move forward?
- Everyone should review project plans
- Perhaps we need to get all tasks into cardmeeting, and prioritize in there?
- Each project should probably have it's own meeting
Oct 31 Release
- Heuristic Walkthrough needs to be cleaned up so we can publish it
- DND Design Pattern published
Next Meeting will be Friday, Daphne will co-ordinate time offline.
