<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Hi Rogan,<br>
<br>
I just wanted to point out that in the early days of the web team,
Lori, Jim and other members of the team worked on a document that
identified users and the functionality/content requirements for
each user group. This document was created during the long-range
planning process that included a survey of the community. You
might find that you can pull some content from there rather than
starting something from scratch.<br>

you know something but you fail to articulate it, even to
yourself, until someone else pretty much lays it out for you.
That's how I felt in a short exchange with Galen when I
realized that we hadn't discussed our users and defining who
they are as audiences and what they are coming to the web site
for.

<div>Specifically, in this case we were talking about people
coming to the site for help. And I think it's a good design
idea to keep users in mind as we make some decisions about the
web site so that we're making user centric decisions. So, in
the bottom half of the same document that I started to make
web tasks on I will start a listing of users and the tasks
they would come to the web site for and invite others to edit
that part as well.<br clear="all">
