Discussion:
Testing Review
* Testing will be faster and easier in 12.04 (less breaks we hope).
* Better profiles for testing will land, including a new deaf profile.
* Plus, on site usability testing by Penelope is in the pipeline.
* Charlie will prioritize a11y bugs.
LD
* Not much work done yet in learning or cognitive disabilities.
* For some types of dyslexia, compiz colors could be improved or customized.
* No voluntary personas have dealt with cognitive disabilities. We have had to chase such personas down.
* Universal spell checkers?
* Repeating timer would help ADHD users focus
Documentation plans
are the personas finally done?
- alanbell says "no; Faisal and Daniella are done"
installer
- no specific a11y documentation
any differences needed between 2D & 3D
- Luke is trying to get these all unified
indicators
- don't need to worry about it; it's not quite ready enough yet
anything else?
