Hi.

Manuel,
Great news. Thanks for reaching in. We'd love your support.
I'll send off a note explaining how to participate in UX shortly.
Regards,
Kevin

Althought it might not be current, you should checkout the UX wiki
pages to get a sense of what was being discussed and the areas these
project was taking.

Welcome Manuel. We´re two, or should I say, "somos dos". ;)
I hope people in this list can guide you to the right place to get
involved in the UX design effort..
And let me know if you or anyone else in the UX team needs a guinea
pig to try out new UX design ideas... I´ve been using all sorts of
GUIs since the mid-80s (GEOS on the C64 :), so by now I have developed
quite a good idea of what ´works´ and ´doesn´t work´ for me, I usually
find out quite quickly. Yet I´m not scared of trying something new (ie
I hated Gnome 3.x at first, but once I understood the general idea of
it, I quickly found the strenghts and little -fixable- shortcomings of
its design).

AOO UX - Getting involved
Posted by Manuel del Valle <m....@outlook.com>.
Hi!
My name is Manuel del Valle. I'm from Argentina, and I'm a OO user/enthusiast.
Most certainly, I'm not a C++ guru (not really sure I know what that means, now that I think about it), not even a C++ newbie, nor a rock Star. (:wink:)
Somehow I managed to participate in Google Moderator brainstorming session (don't actually remember how I got there, though) about AOO 4.0 improvements and new features. Kevin Grignon answered some of the "Graphical interface" proposals encouraging us to join the UX team, and that's exactly what I'm trying to do: I read AOO UX wiki, and, in order to get involved, I subscribed to this mailing list and signed up in AOO's Confluence Wiki.
I would like to get in touch with some of the UX people, in order to try to learn and participate, but don't really know how to. Is this mailing list the right place? Obviously, I'm not going to be able to code anything, so the developers list seems pretty far away from my possibilities, but I was hoping that I cuold be "useful" in some other way. Perhaps, sharing the point of view of a regular, non-techie user as regards AOO usability.
Sorry if my English is not polite enough, or quite "rough", I'm not a native speaker.
That's all by now, I wait for some guidance on how to get involved.
Thanks,
Manuel
