Design by Fire Café #006: 20 September 2010
Design in open source
The usability of opensource software is probably one the biggest roadblocktowards adoption. We will take a look at the Drupal community, which made a big step towards a better user experience in the past year.
We will cover the many challenges a development oriented community brings, walking through a few initiatives from usability testing, concept to implementation.

Bojhan Somers is active within the Drupal community and as UX-Team lead a contributor to core development. Bojhan is currently running an internship at User Intelligence and focuses on design of complex (web) applications.
