Sam Ruby commented on WHIMSY-99: -------------------------------- One use for the notes column is to report issues: a mentor that is not on the PPMC, a member of the PPMC that is not a committer, a podling committer that is not an incubator committer. Those kind of things. On other pages, notes can include an indication of who is a chair. In my initial implementation of podling rosters, mentors were similarly marked, but ultimately it turned out better to split those names out to a separate list. As long as the functionality is still there some place, feel free to change the UI as you see fit. I like the way that Shane took ownership of the CGI UI. > Improve roster tool UX > ---------------------- > > Key: WHIMSY-99 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WHIMSY-99 > Project: Whimsy > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Roster > Reporter: John D. Ament > Assignee: John D. Ament > > The roster tool needs some UX improvements: > - Double clicking on a row is not conventional, and actually makes mobile > support next to impossible. We should have some kind of edit mode (as some > call it, the hamburger may work) > - The plus button turns into a search for some reason, without explaining > whats going on. The search should explain more about what to do, and perhaps > even explain the multi-search mode. > - The buttons that do appear are in a notes column > - There's no way to actually add notes so its not clear why we need a notes > column -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346)
