DrupalCon 2013 session roundup
Highlights of last week’s experience, at least the sessions.
responsive discovery
note: cmi d8 init presentation was interesting. I think it’ll be useful. haveaproblem.com responsive process website experience map: this might be JUST the thing for admissions lunch & learns: talking to the content creators
ux spaces
“everybody has a role to play in ux” (re twitter convo from last session) a bounded set of interactions: action content model in a site w/4 menu items, each one is a space they can be nested ( subject verb object ?) as a [role], I want to [do a thing] in order to [benefit] [...]
designops
closed mode vs open mode experience map making fun of using twitter bootstrap? our own UI library? Justin has gotten a pretty good start on that, but we definitely need to get that broader & deeper. make the docs (not too many) – share the docs – maintain the docs – ux dashboard make a [...]

eaton, post-mobile
one pool of content structure content for remixing. (I’m starting to wonder if we need to work on an entirely different model of content ownership) model meaning, not presentation (and maybe not ownership, either)
higher ed unconsortium
wondering if any of my colleagues are here. they’re going to BoF after this…but I want to go to Eaton’s talk. interesting…someone from UC Davis. met several ppl at the Cascade Server conf from UCD. CAS/LDAP integration, incl user fields messy, hasty pluralism
asset mgmt in d8
co-lead of scotch initiative assets = js, css asking how many ppl are using sass etc in d7, not much happiness tho. strange thing for me is that I haven’t done any theme dev (like, at all) in D7, so everything I know is D6 still. assetic is a php library, part of symphony (sp?) [...]
