Re: UX Research

2016-10-18 Thread dusenberrymw 
This is awesome!  I really like the storyboards as they describe the types of 
scenarios in which SystemML would be really useful.  We should continue to work 
on making sure all of these are successful stories for the project.

The website layout analysis is great too -- we definitely need to get to the 
point where new users understand the project as quickly as possible.

 It seems to me that what's currently missing are the easy entry points

 I hope to see an outcome of actionable items for developers from this

Re: SystemML design explorations

Thanks for sending this out Renee! Our design team put our heads together
to come up with concepts for simple and intuitive user flows as well as fun
visuals for the website. We're looking forward to hearing thoughts from the
rest of the community.

Hope you find this useful, we've been exploring a range of colors, styles,
and layouts, and appreciate all of the input and inspiration we can get! We
will continue to post our progress as we continue.

2016-10-18 Thread Luciano Resende 
Great guys !!! I think having the UX roadmap published is fine, and we
could just create a roadmap page where we have sections for development and
ux and fixing SYSTEMML-972 (particularly SYSTEMML-974) will make it much
simpler to add more contents to the website.
