Work Completed
- Medici
- Attended Monday staff meeting and it was determined I should apply the desktop fix for dropping files to collections to the 1.1 branch for a 1.1.1 release. This work was tracked by MMDB-1067. I implemented the fix and tested the desktop client. I also helped test the web client when Joe applied his fix for the drop applet.
- Continued refining my desktop UI review by adding more possible views/perspectives to capture comments Joel made about the desktop client. I added text refining my comments and replying to others comments. I also tweaked some of the views and text describing each view on the implementation wiki page so we have good visuals to start discussion.
- Attended the Friday December 17th design review and described my thoughts on how the desktop client can be improved. We also discussed the anonymous login options and I will need to tweak the design page based on feedback (e.g. slow connections will not want to forced to login to a server even anonymously).
