Good afternoon,

I have a few thoughts on Orion UX and am wondering if it would be appropriate to participate in this call? I was just accepted to GSoC with a proposal to Orion & am, therefor, new to the community and wanting to get more involved. If someone could please explain a little about the protocol for these calls, I would be more then happy to prepare in advance.

Cheers,

My list in case it might inspire discussion:

1. Waiting. eg git repositories page.
2. Scrolling. eg git repositories page or plugins page
3. Flashing. Many pages do large repaints for small actions.
4. Overwriting. Accidentally edit a file in two tabs, you lose.
5. Cursing. Search then click the breadcrumb to go to a directory. It
searches instead.
6. Debugging. well, no debugging of course.
7. Pondering. Did it work? Why FAILED? Oh, I need to look over there
to see the message.

Generally I like to see the UI be more compact, with smaller icons and
less redundant text, update in-place rather than by-page, provide
messages at the point of interaction, and be more workflow focused and
therefore less uniform.
