Any Athena users out there?  This is a request I'm passing on from the
Usability Group.   Margret


IS is conducting a series of usable design and usability tests of an
Athena

User Interface (AUI). The usability test, which is a series of tasks

working in the new AUI followed by a brief evaluation, takes about 30

minutes to complete. The design effort is a card sorting exercise to
help

us determine the most usable menu hierarchy.

We plan to be conducting these tests throughout December and January in
N42.

If you would like to participate in this effort as either a tester of
the

system or in the design effort in a card sorting exercise, please
answer

the following questions and send them to sbjones@mit.edu.
