Hi folks,
For anyone here who doesn't know me, I'm Máirín Duffy and I'm an
interaction designer with Red Hat (I work on Red Hat Network -
rhn.redhat.com).
I heard that you folks are building a bunch of infrastructure
applications and would like them to have a consistent look and feel, and
I would be very interested in helping out in this effort. I have a
couple of questions about the project:
- How many applications are involved, and what's involved? Is there an
exhaustive list somewhere with kind of a basic description of what each
does?
- Which applications are highest priority to receive design/skinning work?
Based off of these I think the next steps would be for me and maybe some
other designers (I will try to recruit some :) ) to look over the
applications in question, considering their priority, and start putting
together some mockups for their look and feel. Then we can share the
mockups and start discussing their implementation here, and tweak them
where there are implementation concerns, and then finally figure out or
start implementing them (once there's an initial set of mockups the
design/implementation processes can kind of happen in parallel, as
implementation issues crop up we can go back to the designs and tweak as
needed, so on and so forth.)
Does this sound like a good plan?
