Oh, thanks for clarifying. I agree waiting for some monthly user feedback session wouldn't be ideal; rather, I'd like to see that kind of meeting establish a process for getting user feedback sooner. Right now I think it's a little intimidating to say "let's just start getting user feedback" with no other instruction. > > > I'd envision it as something between a working group and a book club - > > we could learn different aspects of UX design and research, and apply > > them in various ways.

Seems like we can go the typical route - vote for timezones and put it on tinyurl.com/gitcal - but I'll wait to see more people than just you and I talking about it before we do that ;) > > Thanks, > Jonathan > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Git UX" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an email to git-ux+unsubscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx. > To view this discussion on the web visit https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/git-ux/YoEnsb2UpDwdjDpd%40google.com.
