=New Items for next meeting= = Teams =
 * Collaboration
 * Prototype is complete, and in use by Daisy
 * Joe: I watched the first interview; as expected, because the person wasn't familiar with Beta to begin with, talked about things that were part of the last beta and not the current filters. Long interviews.  Do we have any people who are new filters beta users?  Got the list from Roan in time?
 * Daisy: Kind of. The goal was to have a mix of people who have used the beta filters before vs not used.  Still recruiting from both sets.  Already have 4 people, none have used the beta.
 * Daisy: so far no-one seems to mind taking more time. Can schedule followups.
 * Pau: Can also try to timebox them, complicated to be taking notes plus [...] Some users may be more willing than others to add extra time.
 * Daisy: some questions turn into longer answers. Q: Do we care about what these people do on recent changes and what do they do on watcthlist?  Thought an indirect goal of this testing was, figure out if we should put the same functionality on recent changes and watchlist?  Trying to get a sense of what they do currently and how these layers of filters help with that.
 * Joe: I think they're important. [...] interesting to see a watchlist user.  hope we alse have Recent Changes users.
 * Daisy: watching peoples' backgrounds and how they interpret functionalities. One user was excited by feature (to integrate watchlist into recent changes) and one wasn't.  How their backgrounds [affect how they interpret the new features]
 * Nick: Depends. I have 9000 pages in my watchlist, and would find filters for that immensely useful.
 * Daisy: I am also recruiting for beta users for Recent Changes filter satisfaction testing.


 * VisualEditor
