  9. Rationale • User experience reviews are critical: • New features can cause clutter in UI, confusion, bad user experience • New features can clash with existing or planned features and lead to unexpected behavior • Stanford only has one designer to tackle the workload, so we need help

  10. Requirements for Contributions Clear specs are a must: • Rationale for new feature/enhancement • Description of expected behavior • Documentation of all affected screens • Screen shots desirable
