Hi all, Reporting-in from the hackathon in Milan regarding some discussions we've had about the BSA.
--- Passed-in Variables: Right now the BSA doesn't receive any variables passed-in from LO due to the way that it's embedding in an iframe, but Cloph and Rob think that we can solve that problem by taking most of the BSA out of the iframe, and just using the (invisible) iframe for our communication with Bugzilla. Rob is pretty busy right now, but is hoping to get that implemented soon (Rob: Any guess on timeframe?) --- Version Removal: Rob suggested that we remove the non-release versions from the Version Picker. Given the makeup of our BSA users, that seemed roughly reasonable to me. Cor mentioned that we sometimes have special events where we ask end users to download and test an 'rc, so in those particular cases we might want to re-enable those versions in the BSA *temporarily*. Thoughts? (Joel -- I know you'll want to chime-in here) --- Simplify/de-clutter user interface elements: After a user selects a Component, we could collapse the grid of icons (perhaps fade them down and move them to one side?) and then enlarge the icon of the selected component. This would make that interface element less "busy" and keep the page cleaner when we start to add more fields in the next steps. [Side note: There are still multiple components for whom there is no unique icon; I think that if we're going to have a grid of icons for components, we need to have a unique icon for each one, otherwise the inconsistency gets confusing] --- That's all for now.
