<frankl> Hi, all!
(16:00:39) lizm: howdy
+
<clu_sun> moin
(16:01:49) mdamboldt: Will Andreas join today, too?
+
<Andreas_sun> we have 6 action items to go through today.
(16:02:21) lizm: I'm at home, so I don't know
+
<Andreas_sun> 1. ODF document analyzer
(16:02:38) frankl: Yes he will. He has some probs with the software.
+
<Andreas_sun> that's mine
(16:02:47) ungethym hat den Raum verlassen (quit: Remote closed the connection).
+
<Andreas_sun> some news
<connection lost>
+
<Andreas_sun> Chrristoph Noak toalked about it during his presentation on CeBit
(16:03:36) mdamboldt: Hi (again)
+
<Andreas_sun> yesterday
(16:03:38) ungethym [n=ungethym@dslb-092-074-048-110.pools.arcor-ip.net] hat den Raum betreten.
+
* luo (n=opera@83.230.9.77) hat #ux.openoffice.org betreten
(16:03:46) ***mdamboldt seems Andreas is not the only one with trouble....
+
<Andreas_sun> we hope to attract some Java dev people who are interested to help out
(16:04:03) mdamboldt: So let's start with the action items review:
+
<Andreas_sun> 2. User Survey 2009
(16:04:24) mdamboldt: 2009-01-19/1  ODF document analyzer  Andreas  Stalled
+
<Andreas_sun> Frank
(16:04:39) ***mdamboldt maybe we wait for Andreas and go the next ones...
+
* luo (n=opera@83.230.9.77) hat #ux.openoffice.org verlassen
(16:04:46) mdamboldt: 2009-01-19/2  User survey 2009 Frank Running
+
<frankl> We had some problems with the User Survey 2009 database last weekend. We had to start over with a new database table due to an error in the original one. I hope a repair of the old database table is possible.
(16:04:54) frankl: The OOo User Survey 2009 is online: http://blogs.sun.com/GullFOSS/entry/project_renaissance_openoffice_org_user
+
<frankl> The old table already had 14000 responses.
(16:05:03) mdamboldt: So I will close this AI
+
<frankl> We receive about 1000 responses a day.
(16:05:21) mdamboldt: Or is there any need to continue tracking it as AI?
+
<frankl> Furthermore we have discovered a dead link to the survey. We have fixed this link and redirect all visitors to the most current survey on OOo.
(16:05:30) frankl: No.
+
<Andreas_sun> ok
(16:05:33) mdamboldt: Next one:
+
<Andreas_sun> 3. Usage Tracking Marketing text --> Liz
(16:05:33) mdamboldt: 2009-02-02/1  Usage Tracking marketing text  lizm  In progress
+
<Andreas_sun> Liz is not here dotay
(16:05:46) lizm: Still in progress
+
<Andreas_sun> so I guess nothing new
(16:06:21) mdamboldt: lizm: Is there a due date or similar to enable other to promote in time for 3.1 release?
+
<Andreas_sun> CN also talked about that on CeBit, a positive promotion
(16:06:57) lizm: Tell me the 3.1 release date and I'll get it done by then ;-)
+
<Andreas_sun> 4. Usage Tracking Functionality --> Andreas
(16:07:35) mdamboldt: lizm: Well it was just shifted again. How long do you think you need to finish it?
+
<Andreas_sun> So far, everything is going as planned. Target is still 3.1
(16:07:52) lizm: a week
+
<Andreas_sun> 5. Compatitive Analsis --> Frank
(16:07:55) rtimm [n=Ruediger@nat/sun/x-795714d901815bdf] hat den Raum betreten.
+
<frankl> Still stalled.
(16:08:07) mdamboldt: Ok
+
<Andreas_sun> ok
(16:08:08) lizm: But that means I can do nothing else that week
+
<Andreas_sun> last one for today
(16:08:42) mdamboldt: Next:
+
<Andreas_sun> 6. User interview and focus groups --> Andreas
(16:08:43) mdamboldt: 2009-01-19/3 User Tracking Functionality  Andreas  In progress
+
<Andreas_sun> currently, it seems that we will have some slight changes in out road map since we're getting close to the prototyping phase.
(16:09:43) ***mdamboldt just noticed Andreas still not here.....
+
<Andreas_sun> we will reconsider all data we have collected so far and then decide what is left to research
(16:09:52) mdamboldt: Another one:
+
<Andreas_sun> it might happed that we use these ressources for the evaluation of design solutions e.g. focus groups to test prototypes etc.
(16:09:53) mdamboldt: 2009-01-19/4  Compatitive Analysis  Frank  In progress
+
<Andreas_sun> so, no more actions items
(16:10:01) frankl: No, stalled.
+
<Andreas_sun> ROUND TABLE
(16:10:08) mdamboldt: Ok
+
<Andreas_sun> someone anything?
(16:10:14) frankl: I took that one over from Bettina.
+
<frankl> I have nothing for today.
(16:10:41) mdamboldt: So we would already be at the round table (may be we skip back to AI's later to get status from Andreas)
+
<Andreas_sun> well, I have just a short info.
(16:11:02) Andreas_sun [n=Andreas@nat/sun/x-8cb73ae2ee13ee0a] hat den Raum betreten.
+
<Andreas_sun> the presentation that CN gave yesterday will be available as a video

(16:11:46) mdamboldt: 2009-01-19/1  ODF document analyzer  Andreas  Stalled

(16:12:53) Andreas_sun: Hi
+
(16:12:53) mdamboldt: Hi ambrin
+
(16:13:27) Andreas_sun: I talked to Bj?rn last week and it seems that the difficulties with automated testing have been resolved
+
(16:13:42) Andreas_sun: so I think we're making progess
+
(16:14:03) mdamboldt: Good!
+
(16:14:03) mdamboldt: Just noted there is a third one for you Andreas:

(16:15:01) mdamboldt: So thats all on AI's.
+
(16:15:09) mdamboldt: Open for round table.
+
(16:15:12) lizm: RT? I just wanted to point out that I got the wiki usage survey up and running last Friday. Now there are 54 responses and more keep coming in. Not as big a deal as the user surveys, of course, but I'm happythere are at least 54 people using the OOowiki.:-)
+
(16:15:48) frankl: Some words about the OpenOffice User Survey 2009: Users are asked to take the survey, if they chose register from the help menu. More than 10.000 users took that survey since February 20! We hope to have stable results within the next 3 week.
+
<connection lost>
+
(16:16:45) Andreas_sun: I got nothing actually
+
(16:16:48) frankl: and we had the State of the Project presentation last Thursday. Please find the presentation here: http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Renaissance:Presentations. We will blog about this later today.
+
(16:17:04) lizm: Plus I finished proof-reading and retranslating the IsoL survey last week for Andreas to go ahead with the English version
+
(16:17:24) Andreas_sun: right, thanks Liz!
+
(16:17:46) frankl hat den Raum verlassen (quit: Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer)).
+
(16:17:53) frankl [n=fl93699@nat/sun/x-eb0613bd2b2da109] hat den Raum betreten.
+
(16:17:53) Modus (+o frankl ) von ChanServ
+
(16:18:44) mdamboldt: Anything else somebody wants to mention in todays round table?
+
(16:19:03) lizm: BTW, I blogged on GullFOSS and UX about the wiki usage survey, but if anyone knows of more places I should ask for participants, please let me know of feel free to post the link yourself. Thx!
+
(16:20:04) lizm: Could I put a link right on the main wiki page?
+
(16:20:35) Andreas_sun: OOo Wiki?
+
(16:20:44) lizm: Ooo wiki, yes.
+
(16:20:51) Andreas_sun: why not
+
(16:20:54) ambrin: Hi everyone. I am new here. I am a Designer/Project Manager from Atlanta. Work a lot with UX/UI. I went through the sign up process just have to catch up on the reading now.
+
(16:21:07) Andreas_sun: welcome!
+
(16:21:17) lizm: Of course I'd take the link to the survey away as soon as the survey is over. Welcome Ambrin!
+
(16:21:52) Andreas_sun: you didn't introduce yourself on the ux/ui lists yet, did you ambrin?
+
(16:22:30) ambrin: No -- I just signed up this weekend -- and that is on my list of things to do
+
(16:22:54) lizm: Hey Ambrin, Do you like analyzing data or would you rather use pixels? ;-) We would love to have you involved in any capacity you feel comfortable.
+
(16:23:05) rtimm: lizm: a link at the wiki entry page sounds fine. Just that the page is a bit chaotic - where to best put it?
+
(16:23:37) lizm: rtimm: yes, that is a problem. Hmmm. We'll have to look and see.
+
(16:24:37) lizm: ambrin: how is the weather in Atlanta? My parents are in CT and have snow.
+
(16:25:14) ambrin: lizm: They both sound appealing to me. We had snow yesterday -- it was nice.
+
(16:26:27) lizm: Snow in Atlanta, huh. I've got Georgia on my mind ;-) Seriously, the UX team is short-handed so we can use lots of hands. Hope you have two. ;-)
+
(16:27:26) lizm: After you introduce yourself on the list we'll know more about your areas of interest and enjoy throwing tasks your way. If you pick em up and run that's great. You choose what you want to do.
+
(16:28:05) ambrin: lizm: You are lucky I do. Okay great I will get that done today.
+
(16:28:09) lizm: Naturally you can also invent tasks for yourself and join in other already existing efforts. There is soooo much to do. You won't be bored!
+
(16:28:32) mdamboldt: Ok, anything else for the round table?
+
(16:28:32) mdamboldt: ambrin: I'm eager to read more from you. Hopefully you like this project and like spend some time on it with us.
+
(16:28:47) lizm: Great. Good to have you aboard! Ahoy!
+
(16:29:06) lizm: no, I'll be quiet now.
+
(16:29:32) mdamboldt: Ok, silence is taken as "nothing else for today" :)
+
(16:29:42) lizm: bye
+
(16:29:42) mdamboldt: So talk to you all again latest next week.
+
(16:29:45) Andreas_sun: bye
+
(16:29:48) frankl: bye
+
(16:29:51) Andreas_sun hat den Raum verlassen (quit: "Verlassend").
+
(16:29:55) mdamboldt: Oh, by the way, next monday I will be on vacation
+
(16:30:05) mdamboldt: bye

(16:30:13) lizm: we'll miss you Martin. Who should officiate?
