[Design] [Sum] Jan 15 - 21

[Sheila Mooney]

Slowly catching up....

New Threads:

In her post Who's Triage Status is it anyway? Mimi describes some of  
the complexities around triage status and tracking whether or not  
users have seen an item, processed the item and the actual status.  
Mimi provides an example in the case when a user is sharing a task  
list and a non-sharing scenario. Mimi then summarizes a proposal to  
deal with these issues.
+ Rather than summarize all the related conversation I am going to  
wait for Mimi to send out a final proposal for handling triage  
status. Now that we have fixed recurring events in the table view,  
this has brought up some further modifications and likely changes  
some of the proposal Mimi has described above. We are holding a  
design session on Tues Jan 30th to discuss and will follow-up with an  
email to the design list.

Priscilla sent out a summary of Supported browsers for Cosmo in the  
Preview timeframe.
+ Matthew made a note about clarifying which versions of Firefox we  
support. He also suggested we draft a policy for handling older  
browsers.
+ I think this should be part of the Preview documentation.

Priscilla sent out a proposal for updating the OSAF bundle front page.
+ BCM suggested a separate page with instructions for the server  
administrator to setup Cosmo for the first time.

Bryan Stearns who is working on the Chandler dashboard sent out  
summary for Date column priorities, and reminder column interaction  
to check with Mimi that he is working on stuff in the right order. He  
also had some specific questions about a couple of bugs in particular.
+ Mimi responded, confirming the order of prioritization.

Hank posted a mail asking if there was a way to view collections in  
the order of creation/modification date.
+ Mimi responded that we do store these attributes but currently do  
not have the UI to sort and resort the sidebar in different ways. She  
also asked him to elaborate on a specific use case for this feature.
+ Hank cited an example from previous experience working on a pim, it  
was popular feature to see the latest stuff you had been working on.

Philippe posted an email about the use of a new Dogfoodable flag in  
bugzilla. This will keep track of all problems that are blocking  
dogfooders and let's us know how far we are from the "dogfoodable"  
state at any time.
+ Both Sheila and Katie clarified that this flag will be used  
sparingly AND does effect the relative priority of these bugs. We  
consider any blockers for people's ability to dogfood a barrier to  
reaching Preview and must be addressed in parallel with ongoing  
feature work by any non-critical path resources available to look at  
these problems.

Continued Discussions:

Philippe responded to Mimi's proposal for Chandler Out of the box  
experience. He suggested a default shared collection on osaf.us.

There were numerous responses to Priscilla's Update on the Cosmo 0.6  
spec round two. The most significant clarification to note...
+ We will NO longer have an option in the Advanced Settings dialog  
for a user to optional chose to have the account browser view appear  
when they automatically log in.
+ For Preview, we will simply have a settings checkbox that has the  
account browser link appear in the top right section of the browser.

Another response to preview email Update on Cosmo 0.6 spec. Mimi  
lists some modifications to a number of Cosmo dialogs so they are  
consistent in style.
