</div>Well most people think that persona driven design is better than feature<br>
driven. That said I don't disagree we need to be more specific when we actually<br>
make the decisions. And we are not limiting functionality to students, just<br>
targeting features for them initially. In a bid to make the developers and and<br>
other contributers among them to see the value in joining Calligra.<br><div class="im"></div></blockquote><div><br>I would suggest to go with a very simple persona for the start. Students often have very high requirements for the software (at least in the technical disciplines) e.g. might need a lot of formulas. We are still using Latex for also everything here.<br>
<br>As initial persona I would use a home user or some kid in school doing some homework. I think a better way to do it would be to do it like Apple. Their
initial products often don't have lots of features that common products
provide, but they deliver a very polished product. </div></div>
