This is the GNOME UI Summary for November 12 – December 1.
Table of Contents
1) NEW WEBSITE
2) New Redesigns
3) UI Hit Squad Back In Business
1) NEW WEBSITE
The GNOME User Interface Improvement Project is no longer at
http://www.jcinteractive.com/gnome-ui/
It is now at http://developer.gnome.org/gnome-ui/
. Please update your links and/or bookmarks, and distribute that
URL. This change is temporary, until the major reorganization of
the website is completed. After this is done, it will move again.
I’m sorry about all this moving, but I simply cannot afford to keep
the GNOME UI IP up at jcinteractive.com.
2) New Redesigns
There is a new redesign up for the GNOME Help Browser at
http://developer.gnome.org/gnome-ui/hitsquad/gnome-help-browser.html
It includes Index and History panes, as well as a Search
feature.
There is also a redesign of GnomeICU available at http://developer.gnome.org/gnome-ui/hitsquad/gnomeicu.html
This is basically redesigning GnomeICU to take advantage of the
GNOME widget set, but it is also (at the very least) an attempt to
tackle the horrible problem of ICQ’s common interface.
2) UI Hit Squad Back In Business
The UI Hit Squad has been reborn, and will start tackling the UI
issues that come up ASAP. The current members are:
James M. Cape jcape@jcinteractive.com
David C. Mason dcm@redhat.com
sungod sungod@atdot.org
Michael Gratton mike@vee.net
David Santiago mrcooger@cyberverse.com
The purpose of the UI Hit Squad is to take ideas from various
sources, formalize them, vote on them, pass them to the gnome-gui
mailing list for a final discussion, then implement them. The real
meat and potatos of the UI work.
Obviously, there is a long way to go, so send in those feature
requests, patches, and ideas.
P.S. Sorry it took so long to get this out, Thanksgiving, moving
the website, and the gnome-gui mailing list are what I point to as
excuses.
🙂
