No design session this week.
New Threads:
Sheila sent out 'Expectations for using Cosmo 0.5 to edit calendar':
http://lists.osafoundation.org/pipermail/design/2006-December/
005799.html
This is potential bug that corrupts a users' calendar data if they
edit calendar (published in Chandler) from the Cosmo UI. A reminder
that Cosmo 0.5 is not fully dog-foodable yet, though testing the
Cosmo UI and logging bugs are welcome. Currently bugs for Cosmo are
fixed in the next release. Cosmo 0.6 will be our "first dogfoodable
release" and implies we will have higher
stability expectations for Cosmo UI in the next iteration.
Continued Discussions:
Priscilla sent out a last call on how time zones will work on the
Cosmo UI: http://lists.osafoundation.org/pipermail/design/2006-
November/005788.html
+ Bobby had proposed staging work on time zones for 0.6. The only
things lacking would be 1. Turning off time zones (floating mode), 2.
Choosing what timezone to view events in.
+ It was agreed that once the Casual Collaborator work was done for
0.6, if there is still time, then he would continue finishing off
time zones.
+ Mitch proposed to have a alert prompt to turn time zones on if the
shared calendar already has a time zone. This is in response to an
event at 2PM PST and 2PM EST being displaying on the same time slot.
The published calendar should have a "suggested" time zone which is
used in just this case - when the user hasn't set a time zone view
and there are events in more than time zone.

Priscilla summarized 'Cancel button in the event details': http://
lists.osafoundation.org/pipermail/design/2006-November/005785.html
+ Currently on Cosmo there is a 'Remove' and 'Save' button at the
bottom of the event details. If the user fills out the form and
clicks away, nothing is actually saved until the user selects the
'Save' button.
+ Next actions: It seems for now keeping with the current design
('Remove' and 'Save' buttons) is fine for Preview. We will revisit
this issue again when we receive some more concrete feedback from dog-
food users or users post Preview.
Magic URL visual design review. Continue discussion about Cosmo UI as
internationalization-friendly, specifically in the 'subscription
teaser' (the area where a not-logged in user would click to sign up).

Eric Harg forwarded a new thread to the list to inquire about Support
for Nuxeo's CPSSharedCalendar. He had been trying out Chandler and
ran into some interoperability issues linking to their content
management system and their calendar server (CPSSharedCalendar). Eric
ran into a sharing zanshin error.

+ Still running into some errors 'Failed to subscribe'. Grant
mentioned that Chandler is not understanding what CPS is sending and
continued to speak with Eric off line to help him to view his tcpdump
so his ID/PW was not exposed on the list.
