Leisa, I’m planning on doing some testing in the future rounds of testing. I only just got back from holiday and won’t be organised for this round (6-8 April). I’ve already marked the others on my calendar though.

Please can you blog about software & hardware, and recruiting. Thanks!

I am also confused at why there are 2 different sites. Too many links to follow off the original DO article (Drupal.org).

Why are there 2 sites for this?

@sun I think its best to just reply on d7ux.org, atleast thats what I have switched to. I hope leisa could address some of the concerns you have.

But I agree that it is to scattered to be able to track progress.

The first point you gave is I think the curse of this setup, also as they stave away from conversation directly in comments its unavoidable to have this feeling.

I have hard times in trying to follow what is actually going currently.

So what do we have?

- Specific questions in occasional blog posts here; some leading to a flood of comments, a few even containing very constructive follow-ups and insights from members of the community.

- Cross-posts at d7ux.org; duplicate content. What did I read already?

- Encouragement to post own mockups, videos and ideas “somewhere”; anywhere on the net, where one has hard times to track them and a very hard time of getting an idea of a bigger picture.

- Occasional “wrap-up” and summary blog posts here as well as on d7ux.org, talking about some kind of progress (I can’t see or am unable to identify), and again, encouraging words to get involved in this process (but I’m unable to find out how and where).

- Now this post even talks about usability testing, which makes me “fear” that there may even be more progress _somewhere_ behind the scenes than is recognizable.

So what do we have? And where? And where do we stand?

Really. Drupal’s administration is one of my favorite ‘big topics’, but I horribly fail to “get involved” into all these far-scattered posts.

On top of that, information and communication is deeply hidden in videos. Please bear in mind that not everyone has time to watch videos all day.
