8 | == Design Process == | ||
9 | |||
10 | The process involves the creation of specifications, analysis, mockups, partial prototypes and even final versions of the proposals made. The aim of these proposals are to improve XWiki's UI look&feel, usability and interaction. | ||
11 | |||
12 | * Design //improvements/development// are made according to the current [[XWiki Enterprise Roadmap>>http://enterprise.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/Roadmap]] | ||
13 | |||
14 | * Design //discussions// are made on [[IRC>>http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/IRC]] or on the [[mailing lists>>http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/MailingLists]] | ||
15 | ** design discussions on mailing lists have [Proposal] in the subject field | ||
16 | ** design discussions on mailing lists are usually sent both to (users AT xwiki.org) and (devs AT xwiki.org), depends on what kind of feedback is requested | ||
