Thanks for posting this, Cristoph! I just left some more feedback. It would be great to hear from others on this list as well!

Hi all,

  • Marketing: Once we feel a bit more confident about usability, it would be great to market the tool. We can do this in three phases:
    • Phase 1: emails to different mailing lists announcing the project, and asking for suggestions and feedback on the tools
We could set up a little project team that takes the input from the community and creates some ui prototypes. Usually, you get more qualified feedback if you confront users with a wireframe or a rough draft. When we feel confident about the basic design we could implement the new features and go for tests with a wider audience just as you suggested. 

I like this idea. It would be great if we could set up a space - maybe on MediaWiki.org - where we could flesh this out as a community. It would be great if you could take the lead on getting this set-up and sending all updates to this mailing list! Those of us most interested in being part of the input team could watch the pages on MediaWiki and contribute to this space. I think on this space we could also collaborate on the best workflow, as Emmanuel suggested.

I created a space on MediaWiki.org where I fleshed out my/our ideas for a new version of the collection extension. The page contains:
- an analysis of ~250 days of collection usage (based on HTTP logs), 
- a little discussion of the collection metaphor, 
- suggestions for a new user flow, and 
- some wireframes for a new collection extension. 

Your comments and feedback are highly appreciated. I hope that our efforts will lead to a much more accessible and useful collection/offline feature. What do you think?


Best,
Christoph
