(MD/DC USA) Signup for LoCo Ubuntu Usability Testing

October 29th, 2008  | Categories: General

Hello DC/MD K/Ubuntu Locoers!

I hope you are all excited for tomorrow’s Intrepid Ibex release. We’ve put a lot of work in to it since last May and it promises to be the best K/Ubuntu release yet!

As many of you know, I have been organizing usability activities with the DC Loco. A few weeks ago, we ran a successful pilot on the Cleveland Park Library computers with a few participants.

I would like to invite anyone who is interested to bring a friend or family member to participate on Saturday November 8th. If you want, you can guide your friend or family member through the activity.

We are currently testing the Photo Experience. If you have a digital camera, feel free to bring it with you to the test.

The Cleveland Park Library is a hop, a skip, and a jump (about 2 blocks) from the Cleveland Park Metro station.

Testing sessions should only take about 30 minutes, so feel free to bring multiple friends and family or stop by on your way to the Green Festival.

If you are interested, please sign up on the wiki: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DCTeam/UsabilityTesting

I hope to see you there!

    Considering that you are going to test the photo experience on Kubuntu Intrepid, I hope that someone will take into consideration the following bug affecting digiKam/Kipi-plugins before the 8th of November:
    https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kipi-plugins/+bug/286393
    I could not upload pictures on Flickr for weeks now…
    In my opinion, dropping the digiKam KDE4 packages from the repositories was a questionable choice. digiKam 0.10.0-beta4 and Kipi-plugins 0.2.0-beta2 for KDE4 provide a long list of features now and might be the preferred choice for those (like me) who want a system entirely based on KDE4 applications.

    Best regards.
