Talk:HowTo Request User Experience Assistance

ToDo:

• re-write or drop the intro ("Why..."), or at least introduce "HCI"

done, at least for a first start; Whoever has a better idea for a short intro is welcome to change it.

• see spec project for feature classification - maybe re-use?

done, answer is no. Involving UX (as in user experience engineering) and writing a spec are two completely different actions within the feature development cycle. "Spec required" does not necessarily mean "UX required". However, "UX required" makes it very likely that a spec is required, too. For this reason, "UX required" needs it's own criteria, and cannot copy the "spec required" criteria.

• replace "tools in place" by Issue Tracker and mailing-lists (is this all?)

done, see section "How to contact..."

• change the name of the mailing-list for requesting assistance

done, it is request@ux

• when in the development process should UX be included?

done, see last line of the intro
