Minute

• Setting up account for Sam and Forest. Everyone should be on sourceforge.net now.
• Talked a little about Sourceforge and CVS. People should go home and see if they can access the CVS server.
• There's a homepage for this project, generated by Maven .
• Go through each point on the project proposal. We're focusing more on the storytelling side instead of just organization.
• Sam and Forest both has a friend who does a lot of digital photography. They're going to be our test users.
• Go through the items in the user visit plan. We first going to introduce ourselves and what we're doing, then ask the users to go through the whole workflow from how they acquire their pictures to publishing them on-line for people to see. We then would ask them to evaluate each of the steps in the workflow, and observe where they have the most troub le.
• In particular, we need to observe the following things:
  • The general workflow
  • At what point the user would get stuck doing certain things. This is unlikely for both users are pretty experienced.
  • At what point the user would perform certain tasks repeatedly.
  • The number of substeps that the user take to go from downloading the pictures to publishing on-line.
  • If users have made mistakes, what the mistakes are and how they recover from them.
• See the project's proposal and user test plan for details.
• Sam is going to type up her notes on both the proposal and the user test plan. She'll then send it to the team.
