[libreoffice-website] Re: [UX] LibreOffice menu navigation issue
Hi Christoph, :-) Well, this is a something I'll leave for Ivan to answer... By the way, did someone tell Ivan he became part of the website management team? :-D The current functioning of the menu *seems* fairly rational to me... I can't personally think of another manner in which it should operate, and I can't think of how to implement another behavior... But I think we could probably talk about some of these issues more effectively during a confcall between the four of us (Ivan, Christian, you and me). If we hold one of these once a week for the next 3 or 4 weeks, I think we will be able to iron out problems like this one more effectively What do you think? Me, I'm willing to be available on the time and date of your choice. Can we maybe set this up to happen in the next few days?

[libreoffice-website] [UX] LibreOffice menu navigation issue
Hi David, hi website team! Today, I had a quick look at the new website ... and most of the stuff is just great. But, I discovered an issue that I consider as "major", and I'd like to make you aware of that (if you aren't already). It seems that the site menu items that "group" (e.g. Features) also serve as links for dedicated pages. UX wise, this is a problem when navigating the pages. Example: * Go to http:/www.libreoffice.org * Click on "Features" --> category is active, no sub-category is active (strange) * Click on "Writer" --> category is active, sub-category is active (okay) * Click on "Features" --> although already active, the page changes to something different (back to Features, not okay) Especially when people arrive on any page (e.g. via Web Search), the current behavior unpredictable. For example, people arrive on the page "Downloading instructions" will have to fiddle around to find the real Download page - because the menu just seems to work like other pages (Download is already active, so no additional "hidden" page). Consequently, clicking on a group like "Features" activates "Features" and activates the first item in the sub-menu. Sorry to bother you, but I consider this pretty important, since I really want to avoid that this is replicated by all the l10n pages ...

Mmh, I thought a bit about that. The "badge" itself is usually separated on pages having some own "margin" to other elements. Maybe we can reduce the margins within the badge to efficiently use the space ... but in this case, the borders and the background need to be (nearly) equally colored. Is that something that might work (asking you without providing a demo-badge, sigh)?

And since you refer to "empirically", that's a great example to document it in our upcoming wiki page (screenshot requirements). Then, all the l10n teams can benefit. Although we should think about how to do this with open-source tools (e.g. an image-magic script which can be written?) Since I've looked at the screenshots on the front page, I'd like to say that the documents look that much (much!) better than before ... also the Start Center (btw. not QuickStarter) looks better with some more space around (the first picture). But, only one picture doesn't fit that good - from the marketing's perspective. Since we try to establish "our" branding, the following picture is (although colorful) misleading how "we" look when installed. It might be mis-interpreted as Splashscreen [0], so you mind to remove it? Sorry to bother you with that :-\ If we finally have some time to take a deep breath (a few weeks maybe?), I'd like to discuss the chosen theme. It seems a bit different to those that are "default", and (although it looks great on the computer), the dark title bars are a bit "visually heavy" and don't match to the LibreOffice branding (draft) [1]. > Apart from that, we can format the layout the way you want it > (preferably without breaking out of the theme styles).

I think a subtle border (gray) would help to overcome screenshot snippets problems. http://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/O-PELAb4LD61S9RPTFIW8Q?feat=directlink Don't be scared by the colors, this is what we (UX people) use to highlight elements within other pictures or draw structures. Of course, the color theme of the website applies here. @ Michael: The OOo features page seems a bit messy, since the pictures have different width - there is no harmony. Moreover, the whole page looks like to win the "most headers" award ;-) David, might the structure above work with the site? > >eg.

I had a look at the page, and most probably we still miss a lot of users and their interests (the very first item is "Load and Save ODF documents in flat XML to make external XSLT processing easier"). This is important, but for (business process) IT integration ... Also adding our color palette is a minor improvement for the majority (literally nobody will ever discover it, given our current palette management). Also Marc and Sophie added very important thoughts ... and all are right at the same time (from an UX perspective, but looking from different user's point-of-views). So here is my initial "flat list" proposal how the page can be structured: * All Applications --> Major improvements shared by all applications * Writer (Word Processor) * Calc (Spreadsheet) * Impress (Presentation) * Draw (Vector Graphics) * Base (Database) * Math (Formula Editor) * Internationalization * Developer Features and Extensibility * More Improvements All but the last category should only present a few improvements to avoid boring people to death ;-) Pre-prioritizing helps them to quickly decide "yes, that's worth to download". Let's say 3 ... 5 items per category like Writer. And, one highlight item (e.g. "More familiar keyboard shortcuts") might sum up some individual features (by the way, more familiar to whom ...). But since we also have people who want to deep-dive, there should be a list of "small but important" items (More Improvements). Here, single

Just my opinion. Cheers Marc I agree with this concern. Yes we are using code from OpenOffice, BrOffice and OOGo among others, but LibreOffice is a 'new product', there has been no LibreOffice products before this one, hence we actually don't have 'new features' just features which make LibreOffice stand out from the crowd of Office suites. In fact what you and Marc says is not completely true. We are also aiming to get our OOo users to migrate to LibO, and also those who were currently studying their migration to OOo. Some of them have shown there support and remember that TDF is the continuity, not a breakage. Migrating to OOo takes a long time, qualifying the version sometime take one year to a company, several of them where on there way to finalize there study because it was the right time (Windows Vista/7, new UI and file format in 2010, the wave of OS in Europe, etc). So highlighting the LibO specificities is good but should also ensure the decision makers that we are on the same path and there will be no learning curve necessary to use LibO instead of OOo, only some wanted features (like the new shortcuts in Calc or the Form menu entry). So you are right that New Features is not the right term, may be Highlighted Features, like Marc was suggesting is much better. As a side note, concerning BrOffice, this is only the branding that is different because of a trademark issue, and a small amount of Go-oo features have been incorporated for now. More will come later, once our users base is consolidated.

We should make it as easy as possible for people to distribute our distro. For example, family members burning sets for relatives and neighbours or teachers making copies for students. If we provide a cool logo to burn on the DVD it would also advertise our brand. If we make it too difficult for people to burn copies, then it will impact our market penetration.

[libreoffice-website] Help files on the download page
With the continuing problem with the help files being available and not available, would it then make sense for the download detection, at the point of detection, detect the OS and if there is need for a help file download? Then, we could download the distro, lang pack (if necessary) and help file (if necessary). I hope that the help files will be included with all distros. This is a real deal-breaker for educational use. I doubt very much that any educational institutions would look kindly at having to install help files (as extra downloads). This just make a seamless installation that much more complicated for nothing. Plus the fact that an office suite without a help file doesn't quite make much sense. In the meantime, could we also have a link on the download page indicating where to download the help files (if needed)? We should really be all testing the files and, I guess, we should also be testing whether these install properly to the different linux distros.

This has implications for the Drupal development site as we were
hoping we might be able to integrate tweets with the support section.
I just checked and Drupal has modules for identi.ca which are simply a
backend for the plugin which tweets. From what I have read it should
also support any other status.net installation if we decide to have
our own instance of identica/status update system on the LibreOffice
infrastructure.

Re: [libreoffice-website] Libo Logos for third party sites
Hi Drew, drew wrote on 2011-01-12 19.31: One of the folks, Jeff Chimene, on the US Markting list setup an example under his user account page at the wiki: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/User_talk:JChimene good idea, indeed! The idea is to dish up the graphic from the wiki server and of course link back to the LibO site - the users simply copy/paste the HTML. The wiki is always a bad idea to get images from. Links are neither pretty, nor will they remain stable, and the wiki has some overhead. Something at www.libreoffice.org itself would be much better, I guess, for serving the files. 1) Dishing the graphic from our server, seems like a good idea to me, but what do others think on this? Hm... that means we have to keep one link constant and some people might also object to the trackability (http referer) this opens up. What do others think? 2) There will need to be some text about what you can and can't do - could use some help on that. We will publish a trademark policy draft soon to steering-discuss, maybe it's worth waiting for it and see if it already clarifies things.

Re: [libreoffice-website] Redirects from national domains
Hi, Stefan Weigel wrote on 2011-01-13 22.47: BTW: I think it´s time now for the guys from gdsw.at to hand over libreoffice.at to the foundation (OOoDeV) or at least to redirect to de.libreoffice.org. What do you think? good idea. Do you have contacts to them? Do you happen to know the domain holder of libreoffice.ch and libreoffice.li? Yes, thanks for the reminder, just gave him a ping.
