- Product comments/questions about prototype Android UI:
- Who's writing the copy? Can we standardize on language?
- What's the status of the branding?
- I'd like the error UIs to match Persona.
- Need link to terms and conditions.
- Where does this link to?
- Need forget password functionality.
- nalexander's responses as of December 6, 2012:
- Who's writing the copy? Can we standardize on language?
- I assume UX and Product will write the copy. The existing copy is a mashup of ibarlow's original mocks with nalexander's tender loving.
- What's the status of the branding?
- That's a good question. As benadida hinted via email, what the branding should be is very much open for debate.
- I'd like the error UIs to match Persona.
- I think this is a great idea, since the Identity product team has done good work in this area. I haven't tried to convince Android to match the Persona look and feel, but we'll do what we can. If we don't go with Persona-style UI and branding, I think this is very much open game. I put some ad hoc error and progress UI in place mostly to give ibarlow a framework to hang a second iteration of his mocks.
- Need link to terms and conditions.
- Agreed. Further: we're connecting to Sync, and possibly a Mozilla Services token server. Each service has ToS. How do we display 3 ToS in a meaningful way?
- Where does this link to?
- Unspecified, but I kind of assumed persona.org. At this point, it seems like that may not be valid.
- Need forgot password functionality.
- With the key-wrapping scheme proposed by Identity and Services, making a Persona-like "forgot password" flow is not really possible. If this is a strong product requirement, we need to surface this immediately. As of some months ago, this was not an immediate requirement for Sync: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Services/Sync/NextGen#TBD
