Mary asked about the results from the election for the UXC Secretary. Linda will send results from SurveyMonkey to Mary.

̶ The UXC continued in its review of FMO’s feedback to the UXC requirements that were sent on May 12. Original submission was in Excel, FMO sent their feedback in Word. FMO will be using Word documents going forward. At that last meeting, the team looked at requirements and raised issues, walked through each 1 by 1. Original number 1 requirement were split into two pieces. ̶ Suzanne summarized comments: Found issue with FMO replacement word for pathways. Discussion on entities. Roles discussed, being driven by TFTM. Testing usability was OK. While testing usability is good, UXC pointed out that it should not be our first priority. Team discussed switching requirement priorities (1 and 2) and agreed to do so.

̶ USABLE – 2 SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION (nonnormative): ̶ This requirement requires that entities confirm that they have responded to and remediated material*** defects raised by their usability assessment (other than trivial*** defects), but does not require a specific methodology or measurement approach. ̶ *** rather than define terms (either significant or material) give way to measure (measurements and methodology) by adding graphic from J. Nielsen on Severity Errors and Fixes (Noreen to add).

  • Definition of processes or “pathways” to be added: Pathways generally means that users understand where else the information will be use once entered. It also means a series of steps or sequence of choices that leads to intended result.
