Introductions

• Potential to revisit UXIG group goals based on current interest of membership.

Review UI/UX Hyrax running issue list

• Possible UX Interest sub-group?

• Link items to existing Github issues and/or create new issues.

• Initiate discussion and/or recommendations for items in list.

@Adam J. Arling

• List has been accumulating potential issues over the past several months.

• We may want to compare this list to issues that are tagged as UI/UX in Github, and establish consistency.

• Default UI label might be a good thing to break down into more specific tags.

• IIIF sometimes dedicates meetings to discussing items/lists like these. Something like backlog grooming / prioritization. May also identify ways to solve issues.

Button clutter... icons vs. buttons?

@Adam J. Arling

• Adam is proposing a move to icons, as opposed to buttons with text. Might be more modern, reduce visual clutter.

• Jason: recent work showed that icons need to be updated in multiple places, suggesting a need for refactoring.
