Bazaar Edinburgh 2012

This page offers an agenda for the 3 day Bazaar development event in Edinburgh 1-3 August 2012.

Location: EH9 1PR

Over the course of the days the aim is to test, document and better represent our selves in the bazaar store where things are already a little messy (slap wrists people). Through testing of packages we need to improve descriptions, icons and compliment the packages with screen shots to help our users.

Schedule

• 11:30 - A Simple Start, take the easy packages and improve and screen shot them.
• 12:30 - Lunch
• 13:30 - Complex Bazaar Package Testing

The idea here is to test the more complex packages (those that require dependencies outside of those needed by eprints) and work out how to best support our "one click" users in installing these packages. Additionally we should looks for packages that need config and make sure they have a "config" link!. These packages include:

• • Coversheets
  • Preservation Toolkit
  • Tweepository
  • Open Office Toolkit
