Summary for March 1st 2011 UI Chat


Limbo chat! Getting ready for 3.2 and figuring out what’s what and who has interest in working on specific projects for 3.2.

  • andewryno – looking at outputting semantic markup through WP settings API – working directly with Nacin on this
  • Chexee / saracannon – focusing on visual design tasks (TBC)
  • JohnONolan – will continue his CSS crusade, mostly
  • TECannon – accessibility design / docs
  • jsternberg (new member) – interested in some design / CSS tasks

Short review of Chexee’s “Press This” bookmarklet button – concensus leaning heavily towards the left (lighter) buttons and generally towards the top of the list to match browsers and avoid confusion with rounded action-buttons. Some concerns raised over UX behind the literal meaning of the words “Press This” on a button. Suggestion was also raised for cursor hove state to be a 4-way grabber instead of a pointer to better indicate intended use.

Aiming to have a 3.2 UI roadmap for next week’s meeting.
