Hi all,
I've drafted a feature spot for the test community here:
http://opensolaris.org/os/project/website/content/home_page_draft_24
Let me know what you think.
My impressions, if I may...
- The picture is nice, but I'm not sure if it conveys anything. Most
of the graphics up till now have conveyed a particular style, and now
we have this picture. Actually, that may not be so bad, but it looks
like a small group of computers, and downplays the fact that there are
more resources available (virtualization = lots and lots and lots).
Is there a "Cabinet 02" or a "OSTF02?" I dunno, could just be me.
Probably not just you, the first graphic is usually scrapped in early
feature spot reviews, this is likely no exception :) I try to mix it up
(graphics, screenshots, photos) to keep it interesting, so I started
with a photo for this one since we've had a few weeks of illustrations.
Let me know if you've seen something that conveys something more and
I'll add it to the draft, meantime I'll poke around for a better one.
- I'm not sure, but does "many resources including" need a colon? Or
maybe a mix of semi colons because aren't the first three items also a
sublist?
Good catch, I've added a colon and separated into two sentences, let me
know if you think it is better/worse.
- The last sentence seems a big over the top. "High Quality"
conversation? It's clever, but is it too much? He who would pick a
pun... Those QA folk, always wise-cracking. I dunno, could just be
me. I'm just wondering if something different could be said to end
strongly.
Yes, you are right, if I'm stuck or it is late in the day, I often write
something cheeky and just get it out for review, warts and all. I like
your suggestion below, so I've added it to the current draft, let me
know what you think.
Regards,
Michelle
- Maybe a little more punch about the test farm being "open"
resources, matured test suites, and pretty automated -- from resource
request to testing within minutes? No offense, but here' a chunk o'
Sun process that works great, works fast, is a thriving and well led
group, and is virtually outside the SWAN... I guess I didn't use a
semicolon just there so maybe ignore the second bulletin.
