| 133 | After brief discussion with David and Charlie, Jacob's amendments to his proposal have been: |
| 134 | |
| 135 | {{{ |
| 136 | - When I think "computer", I think PC or Mac. We work on phones and tablets now, and maybe will even work on watches |
| 137 | and toasters in the future! Perhaps "computational device" is most clear, not sure. |
| 138 | - You probably should, as David suggests, mention "keyboard/mouse" somewhere in the UI, to further describe "in use". |
| 139 | Though, in your example, you mention playing a movie makes it not idle. Is that true? If so, then maybe we need to |
| 140 | mention something more than just "keyboard/mouse". |
| 141 | - I intentionally did not mention the web prefs, as "making that look/feel/work the same as the UI" is the job of |
| 142 | whoever will develop this. Though, I would recommend using the same "tab groupings" and the same "group groupings" |
| 143 | in both, and even the same tooltips/descriptions, for complete consistency. |
| 144 | - I mentioned changing "Computing Preferences" to be just "Preferences", and Charlie disagreed with that. Now I'm torn. |
| 145 | Perhaps the best description would be "Device Usage Preferences", but that's pretty wordy. I'm okay with |
| 146 | "Computing Preferences", but feel it is a little insufficient. And then we have "Options". How about, for the 2 sets, |
| 147 | we go with "BOINC Usage Preferences" and "BOINC Manager Options", for clarity? |
