[I don't think I'm subscribed to design@, so please Reply-All] Hi, We've been invited to participate in some user testing at a new event "SpinachCon"[1] that will take place a day before LibrePlanet[2] this year.
I need to show up with a list of tasks for users to perform (about 15-30 min worth). I've a few ideas off the top of my head, including testing the sidebar, but I'd be grateful for additional input. What would you like to see tested? What parts of LibreOffice would most benefit from user feedback? Thanks, --R P.S. If you will be in the Boston area on March 21st, it'd be great to have you attend SpinachCon -- just drop me an email! [1] SpinachCon will provide realtime user experience feedback and constructive criticism for participating free software projects in a friendly environment. SpinachCon will be a four hour open house where users will come by and do a few tasks with each of four projects. In order to make it even friendlier, projects will pair up and hear each other's feedback. This precludes the developers or project evangelists from interrupting user feedback with explanations or apologies. After the event is over, each project gets to take their own project's feebdack with them. At this inaugural SpinachCon, users will be encouraged to try all four projects. We envision user-testers spending around two hours with us, so the list of tasks you ask users to perform should take 15-30 minutes. We'd like for each project to bring at least two people -- although three is probably ideal. Your project volunteers do not need to be technical volunteers. If you'd like your project to participate and are having trouble finding local people, let me know and I will put out a call to our local GNU/Linux user group to try and help you fill in the gap. --- [2] http://libreplanet.org/2014/ -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/design/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
