Planet UX now shows updated files

In our never-ending quest to make our work accessible to the world, our file repository will now notify you when there are changes via the Planet UX feed

For those of you interested in collaborating with the Firefox UX Team, we are now syndicating any activity in our file repository as part of the Planet UX feed.

This means that you can keep track of any new work, changes to existing files, and generally see more of the day-to-day workings of the Firefox UX Team.

You’ll soon start seeing entries like this in the feed:

Firefox UX file repository: 68855: [shorlander@mozilla.com] Mac Firelight Mockups Updates

In the above case, it means that Stephen Horlander has checked in some updates to the Firelight Mockups. By clicking the link, it will take you to a page where you can download the files related to this change.

If you want to subscribe only to the file repository changes, you can do so using this link. Since we don’t syndicate this to Planet Firefox or Planet Mozilla, that’s probably your best option if you follow those, but still want to see the file updates.

Hopefully this makes it easier for you to see what we’re currently working on, as well as making it possible to re-use our work for Mozilla-related projects. We’re looking forward to see what comes out of this, especially from people that want to help out & improve on existing graphics or mock-ups.

Alex Limi makes software easier to use. Founder of the Plone project, he currently lives in San Francisco, and previously worked at Jarn & Google .

He’s currently Firefox UX Lead at Mozilla .
