15:02:57 <ara> agenda:
15:03:00 <ara> * Mockups!
15:03:11 <ara> Today we have a very small agenda
15:03:16 <ara> #topic Mockups!
15:03:16 <meetingology> TOPIC: Mockups!
15:03:38 <ara> This week we are working in getting the basics of the UF programme ready to be used
15:03:59 <ara> One of the things that we are doing is to try to understand how the UF should look like
15:04:11 <ara> We came up with this mock up:
15:04:18 <ara> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuFriendly/MockUps
15:04:22 <ara> #link https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuFriendly/MockUps
15:04:42 <ara> The home page shows the different configurations and their rating
15:05:08 <ara> and some filters to find the information you need to find
15:05:35 <ara> We are trying to solve the problem of the different configurations, while having a simple UI
15:06:06 <ara> Once anyone clicks on one of this configurations, the config page
15:06:13 <ara> shows
15:06:26 <ara> where you can see the different results for that configuration
15:07:08 <ara> with the complete list of components
15:07:17 <ara> and similar models based on the model name
15:07:19 <ara> ..
15:07:32 <ara> Anybody have any comments / suggestions?
15:07:34 <roadmr> o/
15:07:46 <ara> roadmr, go ahead :D
15:08:19 <roadmr> we talked about a link to a comments page, to be hosted in launchpad answers, just to make sure that doesn't get forgotten :)
15:08:22 <roadmr> ..
15:08:55 <ara> roadmr, I remember something like that from the last meeting
15:09:06 <ara> what kind of information we should put on lp answers?
15:09:11 <ara> ..
15:09:25 <roadmr> like if any user has a comment on the system
15:09:39 <roadmr> "the default drivers don't work, use the broadcom proprietary ones"
15:09:53 <roadmr> "update to bios version x.xx and then everything works well"
15:10:10 <roadmr> "you need a dkms package to enable full touchpad functionality, get it here http:/xxxxxx"
15:10:25 <roadmr> stuff like that - a comment like that would be useful for the model of laptop I have, for instance
15:10:35 <roadmr> everything works well save for the trackpad, but a simple dkms module enables it
15:10:38 <roadmr> ..
15:10:40 <akgraner> o/
15:10:46 <ara> akgraner, you go
15:11:32 <akgraner> while all those comments would be great that roadmr mentioned - none of the "regular ole end users" would even know how to do those things
15:11:46 <roadmr> o/
15:11:58 <akgraner> or even comment on them so keeping the technical stuff answers on LP answers would be good
15:12:14 <akgraner> could we also use Ask Ubuntu as another resource?...
15:13:01 * ara waits a bit to see if akgraner has finished
15:13:17 <akgraner> ... (yep) sorry
15:13:24 <ara> roadmr, you go
15:13:52 <roadmr> heh .. so I see akgraner's point, but having a way to either ask or see comments about a system is important
15:14:05 <roadmr> otherwise people won't know where to go for that kind of stuff (and it *will* come up)
15:14:23 <roadmr> and when they get mad about their devices not working even though the system had 4 stars, they'll complain anywhere they can heh
15:14:29 <roadmr> ..
15:15:01 <ara> I like it, maybe we can use one "question" per system for the comments
15:15:15 <ara> but yes, something that we need to study how to get it right
15:15:16 <ara> ..
15:15:57 <ara> Any other comments on the mockups?
15:16:04 <ara> akgraner, how do you like them?
15:16:18 <akgraner> I like them and I like the search option
15:16:27 <akgraner> they seem easy to point people too
15:16:28 <akgraner> ..
15:17:07 <ara> good :)
15:17:20 <ara> anything else? or shall we move on?
15:17:33 <ara> OK, moving on then
15:17:47 <ara> #topic - Any Other Business?
15:17:47 <meetingology> TOPIC: - Any Other Business?
15:17:58 <ara> (this meeting is going to be fast)
15:18:02 <akgraner> o/
15:18:13 <ara> akgraner, go ahead
15:18:16 <akgraner> Global Jam
15:18:33 <akgraner> I volunteered my LUG and LoCo team to go through system testing
15:18:43 <ara> perfect!
15:18:47 <akgraner> and I'll have the slides ready for your review sometime today
15:19:00 <akgraner> that way I can point out pain points or questions
15:19:22 <akgraner> I've also had other LoCo teams standing by for testing for release party time
15:19:24 <akgraner> ..
15:19:37 <ara> akgraner, awesome, send them in, and I will review them
15:19:48 <akgraner> will do thanks
15:19:49 <ara> when is global jam?
15:19:49 <akgraner> ..
15:19:54 <ara> (exactly)
15:20:07 <ara> Ok, this weekend
15:20:17 <akgraner> Sept 2-4
15:20:33 <ara> perfect, we want to have a new Checkbox version ready in Oneiric with the UF tests ready
15:20:43 <ara> for this weekend
15:21:09 <akgraner> great!  Let me know when they are in place and I'll replace the screenshots I have
15:21:10 <ara> ..
15:21:26 <akgraner> ..
15:21:38 <ara> akgraner, it shouldn't affect your screenshots, it will look the same, but with more tests
15:21:47 <akgraner> nods
15:22:29 <ara> OK, any other stuff?
15:22:30 <akgraner> that's all I got
15:22:33 <akgraner> ..
15:23:21 <ara> going once
15:23:38 <ara> going twice
