If we want to revisit the content, maybe we can start with some personas,
and scenarios and move from there? This might help us brainstorm, even
though we will not (I assume) run a user-centered design process.
So just to start the example some personas stubs thoughts for the website:
user A: long time Ubuntu Studio user. experienced musician
user B: previous linux user. Film editor, is just switching to Ubuntu Studio
for first time.
User C: first time linux user. Expert graphic designer.
I'm divided between two thoughts:
1. This "persona" thing is genious
2. How do i use this "persona" thing in this application?
But let's try, when i found ubuntustudio, i was an experienced musician.
previous ubuntu-server user, and a professional graphic designer.
I wanted to know if i could ditch adobe and steinberg (cubase) to save
some free-beers. In fact, i already kindof knew i could, since i got the
link from a close friend, my Best Root For Ever.
What i was interested in was: what applications are included, and how do
i install it on my machine. I knew what it was about (ehm.. Linu... ehm
sorry i ment GNU/Linux.. like, ehm, "computing for the people made by
the people" ?) and i probably looked for nice pictures before i started
reading.
Ideas? thoughts?
Back in November last year, I started working on a Community Showcase
with a call for interviews. I got the idea, when were looking for ways
to engage more people with the dev team, and this person (i forgot the
name) wrote something in the lines of: "We should not talk so much about
how cool it is to be a creative down with FLOSS, instead, just _be_
cool." However, the idea was to showcase artists that used ubuntu
studio. I got very little response, but have been sitting on the few
articles i gathered in hopes of getting in more of them in order to have
a sort of constant flow of publications (one post per month-ish). Also,
the site would have needed some arrangement, and well, now is the moment
it seems. :)
I think it would be nice to have such a category. "Community Showcase"
and i've come to think it should even be a place for the userbase to get
closer to the dev team. Or even lead developers of gimp, blender,
ardour, you know... Nice people doing awesome things put in a cool light.
Yours,
Set
