Hi there,
At the design meeting today we decided to split up sections of the
Handbook for review. A lot of work has been done of late and we'd
like to see more but need to make sure we are working on this in the
context of other work. As you all know, working on the wiki can
easily become a black hole.
We started volunteering for sections but ran out of time. Allison and
I volunteered to go through the sections and take a stab at assigning.
Some goals/tips to keep in mind as you review:
- The audience of the Handbook are designer, developers, (a combo of
the two), project managers, etc. and they are not necessarily
intimately knowledgeable about Fluid
- This pass is focused on the 1.0 release. We will continue to
iterate on the Handbook post 1.0. This is meant to be a little deeper
than a surface review but leave deeper restructuring and heavy
rewriting of content to later iterations. Jiras should be created for
these deeper changes needed that you uncover. Be sure to assign them
to the Design Handbook component in jira so we can run a filter on it
later.
- Email page authors if you have questions about relevancy or
location of the page for guidance
- Design Handbook users should NOT have to have knowledge of Fluid to
understand the handbook
- Some particularly heavy sections can be overwhelming. If you need
to, be sure to grab someone else to puzzle through.
- Keep in mind the distinction between the Design handbook and the
User Experience section (Fluid UX Deliverables)
- User the tree view to help see all pages within a section
Potential assignees for the main headings in Handbook (http://wiki.fluidproject.org/display/fluid/Design+Handbook

Gary: We weren't sure if you have any time for this work so we
assigned you a couple of the smaller sections. If you'd like more or
less just speak up. There are for sure a few people that are likely
overloaded.
Thanks! If there are any questions/concerns, let's discuss.
