Meeting Notes 22 November 2007

Geoffrey showed a neat little graph of words important in Romeo and Juliet and top five sentences for each work in the complete corpus

He has a first user story
Offers a meta statement about what TAPoR guesses the text to be..i.e. Poem.
Common themes found may not mean much to most people...interface should give examples.
Term Frequency...again to much jargon...need to be simpler
Flow charting * Look at text * Decide on its type * Return context results
First page has to happen quickly
James wants gender
Have animated results - can buy time by amusing people with animation
Follow along the existing story to show some outcomes - what is going to show up for them
Start a new scenario for someone that wants to analyse their won writing - she's into creative writing and wants to see how it meets the criteria defined by a prof
A scenario for someone who is not using nice clean text...really wild text...non-academic text that is studied.
A scenario...an ESL student at Columbia that needs help to understand a second language
A persona for a student outside humanities of social science (maybe a med student) that needs a relevance for doing TA
A third persona for a non-academic, maybe a programmer at Google...to do TA
We want stories and scenario that support why we would put TAPoR into the McMaster Portal...

Stéfan's Bugs

Need to break bug reports into categories (my Texts, Workbench, user management...)
Agreed on defect, enhancement, bug
Need to fix assignee, reporter, owner
Time's up...will continue process next week
