aday_mpt: morning13:10
mptHello aday_, mgunes, vish13:10
mptand djsiegel113:10
mguneshi mpt, and all13:10
mptSo, a small short meeting today13:10
mptivanka apologizes that she's not here today, her brain is full13:11
mptHowever, she did ask me to announce that the Launchpad team now have it on their roadmap to add the "UX advocate" field to Launchpad projects.13:12
djsiegel1Woo!13:12
mptOnce that's done, project maintainers will be able to specify in LP who their UX advocate is.13:12
* mgunes apologizes for not being active in the team so far; his hands are full with work for the next two weeks, after which he hopes to get up to speed13:12
mptAnd a few of us in Canonical have just been discussing how to publicize the idea.13:13
aday_the guadec bof of ux advocates has been timetabled: http://live.gnome.org/GUADEC/2010/BOFs/UserExperienceAdvocates13:13
mptSweet, thanks aday_13:13
mptWe want this to be something like the papercuts project -- something that open-source projects can adopt even if they have nothing to do with Ubuntu13:14
mgunesthat's nice to hear. would be good to have a "circled ?" icon with a tooltip/link on what "UX" is near the UX Advocate field.13:14
* mpt reads that guadec page13:15
mgunesaday_, how does remote participation work in GUADEC? Does it at all?13:15
aday_the main thing i want to do in that bof is get maintainers involved in the discussion13:15
aday_mgunes: i don't think we've had that in the past, unfortunately13:16
mptMaybe we should invite Andreas Nilsson to join this team13:17
aday_mpt: good idea13:17
mptAny objections? :-)13:17
mgunesof course not :)13:17
mptok, I'll mail him after the meeting13:18
mptnext13:18
mptThere's one design-related session from UDS that we didn't get time to discuss last week13:18
mptAnd that was the idea of tagging usability-related bug reports in the bug tracker, with tags based on usability principles13:18
mptFor those of you who weren't at the session, this is based on something Mozilla is trying13:20
mptYou can read about it more here: http://uxmag.com/strategy/quantifying-usability13:20

ubottuCurrent time in Etc/UTC: June 03 2010, 12:20:5313:20
mptI don't remember the details of that UDS session, so I'll leave that until ivanka has time to explain it, maybe next week.13:21
mptIs there anything else anyone would like to raise this week?13:21
vishwooho , UX advocate! +1 for andreasn ;)13:23
mgunesI'm wondering if any more of the UX-related sessions at UDS were videotaped13:23
mgunes(on top of those already available at video.ubuntu.com)13:24
mptI didn't know (or had forgotten) that video.ubuntu.com exists13:24
mptso I can't help you there, sorry13:24
mptThe Gobby documents probably still exist.13:25
mgunesmpt, check out the lovely video of Bruno Maag where he introduces the Ubuntu font, and the camera never points to the projection for 40+ minutes :)13:25
vishmgunes: http://ubuntudevelopers.blip.tv/file/3621745/, is for the fonts13:25
vishand there are a few other session that were recorded13:25
mgunesah, I guess that's the one13:26
vishmgunes: not sure is video.ubuntu.com still exits , but blip tv is what is being used now13:26
