     24=== Ideas: Usability ===
    2525
    2626 * Role-play being a user:
    … …  
    3232  * What features would you want?
    3333  * What do you think the workflow should be?
    34  * Improve usability:
    35   * Find bugs:
    36    * Try to break it.
    37    * [BugReportingGuidelines Report bugs].
    3834  * Document it:
    3935   * Explore it and document the existing workflow.

    44    * Where is the workflow inconvenient?
    45    * [BugReportingGuidelines Request features and suggest improvements].

    58 === Bug Verification ===
    59 ''GCI''
    60  Some bugs have been left open even though they've been fixed. Others don't have much information.
    61  * Go through the list of [/report/1 open bugs] and try to reproduce the bug:
    62   * If the bug is gone, add a reply to the ticket with what you did and "resolve" the bug as "invalid". (The submitter can still reply and reopen the bug if they want.)
    63   * If you can reproduce the bug but the description isn't clear, add better "how to reproduce" instructions.
    64   * If you can't figure out what the ticket means, add a reply that tells the bug reporter what info would be helpful.
    65 
    66 === Project: Improve installation procedures ===
    67 ''GCI''
    68  * Step-by-step documentation -- we have been concentrating on Windows & Debian/Ubuntu so other distros are poorly-documented.

     51[wiki:BugReportingGuidelines Guidelines]
     52 * Bugs - Try to break it!
