Hi all,
esp. as this suggestion is coming from you, Bernhard:
100% support to the outlined idea. If there is one person, that is
capable to lead UX it simply is Christoph. No more words needed on
that :)
Go, Christoph, go!
Cheers, Björn

Hi all,
yes - this is a really old thread, but I think it is important
enough to revive it now that Christoph is (officially) back
again:

Hi Bernhard, all,

[...] One point I didn't mention even if it is very present
for me:
When Christoph has ended his parental leave I'll ask him if
we can have a similar voting on his position as lead for User
Experience, so I can concentrate on Visual Design (where I
feel much more comfortable than in UX ;-)). [...]
That is a most excellent idea! =) I think a co-lead situation
would be ideal because decisions can be discussed/ideas can be
bounced between the two of you. And it might even make for some
pretty entertaining arguments on-list =D
I have updated content about the team-lead decision on these
pages; http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Design

So in my eyes it is the right time to ask all of you about your
opinion on Christoph Noack becoming our UX-Lead inside the Design
Team. If he wouldn't have been away because of his son's birth
back in May, his election would have been part of the voting at
this time. Now we have to run a separate voting...
I'm quite sure most of you know about his past as OpenOffice.org
User Experience Co-Lead (a position that has never been revoked
BTW) and his huge contributions not only to OOo UX (please have a
look at the Renaissance area in the OOo wiki [1] and find out who
wrote these pages), but to LibreOffice design and UX from the
very first beginning (including the basics of our present visual
identity).
If somebody wants to discuss this proposal before we start
voting, feel free to ask your questions. Christoph told me that
he would take the lead's hat if you want him to wear it. He
already wrote in his "I'm back" mail about his goals for the next
time, but he can be even more precise if you ask him...
In case there are no objections and no need for more discussion
I'd like to start the voting on Thursday (if I'll find the
time...)
Best regards
Bernhard
PS: Just to inform you: It have not only been holiday reasons
causing me to reduce my presence here on the list during the last
weeks. Even if I tried to read all the mails on
design@global.libo, I wasn't able to reply to all the interesting
and important ones. Future seems not to add even more hours to
day- (or better nighttime)...
