i-Team Meeting, Nov 26, 2009

Participants

Lutz Hoeger, Martin Hollmichel, Mikhail Voitenko, Olaf Felka, Stella Schulze

Status of the Project

  • Current discussions about the project take place in discuss@ux and dev@marketing; Still, discuss@ux is the preferred mailing list, which will also be used by this i-team for communication.
  • Feedback is mixed, there are pro-speakers as well as cons.
  • Still no formal UX support in place; Invitation still open; Will continue without formal UX i-Team member if no-one joins the i-Team.
  • i-Team also still lacking Documentation support; unclear if we need it; Lutz will clarify.
  • We do need a build to get the current implementation out into user's hands for better feedback; Mikhail will work on this.
  • We haven't yet settled on an integration target; it might be 3.2.1, but can also (more likely) be shifted to 3.3; we shouldn't exclude any of the possibilities technically.
  • Communication with external designers just started (two folks from Novell); Meeting to be scheduled.

Next Steps

  • Again, bring the subject to the attention of the OASIS ODF Adoption TC; we want to have the TC's "approval" of the icon set as the official ODF document icon set. Unclear what needs to be done to get there. Lutz will discuss with Louis.
  • How can we make OOo builds with ODF icons available?
    • Use the new icon set in CWS odficons01 or similar.
    • Provide a CWS build (can be done in two weeks tentatively)
  • Continue completion of the project home page
  • Meet with designers of other desktop systems (KDE, GNOME), according to the ESC meeting minutes

Round Table

  • Stella: Need to discuss the "Badge on Previews" solution as early as possible, as it may backwards impact the design of the icon. E.g. if we can't have a banner on top of the previews, we may want to decide not to have it on the icons either.

Action Items

Plan for a meeting between visual designers (see ESC meeting minutes) Lutz in progress

Issues to be Addressed later

  • What about platforms, that associate different icons with e.g. odt (like MacOS X does)?
  • Need to change the descriptive text of ODF files from "OpenDocument something" into "ODF something"; This seems to be translation relevant, which makes it more likely that this feature is a candidate for a minor release (3.3) rather than for a micro release (3.2.1).
