You may have noticed that two aspiring but mostly empty new GNOME
usability websites have appeared recently (actually three if you include
the one Arlo has been working on): usability.gnome.org, and
developer.gnome.org/projects/gup. Mea culpa :) I was looking for a
place to put my GUADEC slides, thought we might as well kill two birds
with the one stone and set up a new site for all things
usability-related, and I asked a few people which URL they preferred.
Unfortunately Martin set up usability.gnome.org for us before we had our
answer, which turned out to be that projects/gup was the popular
choice...
So, I think the plan for now is to have usability.gnome.org redirect you
to d.g.o/projects/gup, although it doesn't yet. Of course, this is
still open to debate, if people prefer to have u.g.o as the main site I
guess we can switch it around again. When, that is, anyone decides what
should actually be on the new usability website anyway :)
(We did promise James Cape we'd move over anything of use from his old
UI Hitsquad pages at d.g.o/gnome-ui, though).
There's also a proposal on the site (from Dan) that people start
frequenting #usability on IRC... I don't know if that'll just confuse
people who've been used to hanging out on #interface up until now, but
we'll see how it goes I guess...
Cheeri,
Calum.
