Here are notes from the 2nd Dashboard Design Session: http:// 
wiki.osafoundation.org/bin/view/Journal/DashboardCollabDesign20060112

Just to recap: the main topic of the session was exploring how people  
make progress on processing their information and completing  
tasks...which for Chandler roughly translates into: What metadata do  
people need to attach to their items.

We spent the first half of the session on a brainstorm exercise to  
get a rough sampling of different types of metadata (referring back  
to the list of tasks we came up with last time).

We then proceeded to sketch out some rough UI ideas for both:
+ how users fill-in predefined metadata fields, as well as
+ how users might be able to define their own metadata

For those of you who attended the session, please feel free to add  
your own comments to the notes page, I'm sure I forgot stuff :o)
