*Meeting Notes:* *Participants:* Azeez, Srinath, Sumedha, Anjana, Saminda, Chathuri, Harshana, Dinusha, Dakshitha, PrabathA
* * *Suggested Improvements:* *Service Details Page* 1. Introduce an alternative option over true/false inputs. 2. Change "Disable Streaming" Parameter to "Enable Streaming" and modify the default values appropriately. 3. Introduce appropriate names for parameters (eg: terms such as TS should be removed or used with proper descriptions) 4. Add proper explainations for technical terms such as XA,etc. *XA Data Source Page* 1. Remove arrows in "Save" buttons. 2. Change the flow of UI transitions. The reason is, at a give moment, the existing wizard does not indicate what steps a particular user has already completed and what needs to be done. *Query Definition Page* 1. Proper Alignment of buttons should be done. 2. Remove "Finish" button from the initial stages of the wizard such as "create data source" phase, etc. (But the existance of Finish button might be important when editing a data service. That fact should be considered before modifying it.) 3. A pop up window, a floating div or a similar kind of approach should be introduced against the existing SQLDialect window to insert required parameters. 5. Remove plus/minus icons to hide/show items corresponding to some options since, in general plus/minus means adding/removing something, which is more appropriate to be used in a tree type structure. *Generation Page* 1. "Database name" should be changed as "Datasource name" and the corresponding datasources should be represented using a drop down list box. *Things to be done* 1. Finalize the flow functionalities that should be there in the wizard. 2. Introduce appropriate grouping of items to achieve clarity. 3. Do a brainstorming session and prepare a flow diagram which represents all the necessary steps. 4. Consider the approach of using Tabbed UIs. 5. Use Ajax to make the wizard more interactive. 6. Try some UI frameworks such as JSF to find a better alternative against the existing approach. Regards, -- Prabath Abeysekara Software Engineer WSO2 Inc.
