Hi all. Thought we could start planning for Drupal Denver.

Attendees

  • Rick Cecil, arriving March 20th and leaving March 23rd.
  • Lisa Rex, all week
  • Lewis Nyman, all week
  • Becky Gessler, presenting Wednesday and should probably be there Thursday
  • Dharmesh Mistry, all week

Propose Hangouts

Let's plan at least one hangout for the group
* Usability for Drupal BoF

Usability sessions

We could probably do some usability testing on each other (provided there's a match between participant and target user), and spread the word about each other's usability studies.

  • Lisa Rex and Dharmesh Mistry will be conducting multiple usability studies, for both Drupal and Acquia. Come find us!

Design Sessions

Bring your design laptop and wireframes and let's get down to business in some collaborative design sessions.

  • When and Where? Maybe someone with some more experience at Drupalcon can suggest a place where we can do some design sessions?

(LR: Create a BoF! http://denver2012.drupal.org/bofs)

  • How about a UX show and tell? Let's show others some designs and get feedback

Proposed Core Conversations

Anyone submitted any core conversations? I'm thinking about submitting one or two -- I just haven't figured out quite what I'd like to submit.

I am planning to come to Denver :)

As for plans: It's all up in the air but I might do some research/studies there. Besides that, just like you, I am going to submit sessions for core conversations but not sure what exactly I am going to propose.

I'm there. I've got a talk

I'm there. I've got a talk that involves the mobile UX in core. It's not part of the core conversations track for some reason.

I'm up for a sprint or two. I'm definitely going to organise something mobile admin related depending on how far along we are at that stage.

Sadly, I wont be around - too

Sadly, I wont be around - too busy with school. It would be great if you guys can do some sprinting too, plenty of issues that need a rambling.

I may be around. Working on

Looking forward to meeting fellow UX'ers. I have a talk on 'User Narratives' and will have stuff for show-and-tell sessions pertaining to work I've been doing with the concept of Information Architecture Space (IA Space). Would love to have you guys kick the tires on that (conceptually speaking of course :) )

I'm really excited for DrupalCon and would love to meet up with any UX'ers that are going to be around :) I will definitely be there on Wednesday and most likely Thursday as well. I am presenting Wednesday on the Core Conversation track about the Google study:

I have a core conversation to prepare as well: http://denver2012.drupal.org/content/core-product-3-magic-number

Monday and Friday will have some serious sprinting going on. UXers will be needed to help WSCCI/Page builder, Mobile and Media initiatives.

Lets try and have a UX team breakfast or dinner or something on the wednesday?

I'll be in Denver Sunday night through Friday for the sprints and would like to meet more UX'ers, and would really be interested in what people are doing to help users with WYSIWYG and content management.

So we are meeting for the BoF on Wednesday (5-6) for sure. Should we have an agenda set up as to what we would like to cover and action points from the BoF before hand?

Wednesday at 5-6

It looks like yoroy has a UX core conversation on Wednesday from 5-6. Perhaps we can all meet after that (6-7) for the BoF instead of splitting the group up? I think a meetup + dinner sounds great.

Hi UXers, I'm presenting with

Hi UXers,

I'm presenting with technicka on Wednesday about the study we did at Google. I'm definitely be interested in meeting up with some UX folks, so I'll keep my eye on this thread and try my best to make the UX related sessions.

Agree

dcmistry's picture

Yep, let's meet after the core conversation. 6 PM and do a meetup + dinner.
