Due to the following witnesses taking it upon themselves to change their SQP (Short Squeeze Position) settings without consensus, I've decided to withdraw our support.

Go here for more details on what the SQP does. http://docs.bitshares.org/bitshares/user/dex-short.html

I fully support this worker proposal, it's highly productive and allows for community oriented bounty claims.

@kimchi-king - I don't get how you can claim this is misspent money nor how you've failed to noticed any of the changes that this worker has brought to the reference wallet implementation. I've easily had 10+ of my own issues addressed and resolved via the bitshares-ui repo/worker in the last year, plus the UI has undergone large changes (see tradingview charts, ant design, increased responsiveness/efficiency, new modal pop-up modules, etc).

---

If I were to provide one suggestion for improvement, it'd be that bug reporters aught to get a very small % of issue bounty reward, for bringing an issue to the table that was worthy of implementation. It'd attract functional testers and encourage more users to report their annoyances with the UI if they knew they'd get a couple bucks for their time writing up the issue.

You just need to ask the community how they feel about the progress made thus far and you will quickly learn how disappointed people are. They are expecting UI/UX changes to be made that allow the wallet to be easier to use which will lead to greater adoption. Instead we get a bunch of resolved bugs, but very few design changes that offer a better user experience. I know the reference wallet is supposed to present all features offered, but why not bring back a well designed "Easy" wallet version?

You talk about TradingView which took forever and a day to be implemented. We're glad to see it added to the wallet, but without a complete redesign of the rest of the wallet the addition of TradingView doesn't really help very much. It's like adding a really nice paint job to an old car without first ensuring the body is without dents or rust spots. it looks cool at first, but then people start noticing that things aren't as nice as they could be.

I've recently discovered that they lacked designers and developers which explains why certain things fell off the table, but the lack of transparency only made our negative perception that much worse. Let's see what Startail and his team can do during the coming months.

Xeroc expressed his concerns the other day and bitcrab did respond.

You can read the communication chain starting here. https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=20792.msg320322#msg320322

I'm still not convinced that's there's no conflict of interest and we see today that another community member sees some serious issues arising. https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=26907.0

Thank you DL for presenting yet another outstanding proposal and I'm super excited to see that this one is directly related to the UI/UX of the BitShares DEX. I know this will be specific to the general community's needs, but that's exactly what we need to reach the masses.

Thank you to everyone who has already asked some quality questions. I look forward to seeing this proposal approved by the community so DL and his team can finally provide us with the UI we deserve.

You have my full support for this proposal and let me know if there's anything I can do to help out.

I have decided to remove my support for the Committee Controlled Open Market Operations WP. Even though the funds are used to support the bitCNY and bitUSD markets I feel they absorb way too much of the daily BTS funding.

I fear that this WP will hamper further funding of WPs designed to benefit the community.

Additionally, I'm concerned of a potential conflict of interest with the new SPRING Fund managed by bitcrab, but it's still too early to say for sure just yet. It just seems like this new SPRING Fund is being indirectly supported by the RP through the Open Market Operations WP. The Open Market WP adds buying pressure and stability to the bitCNY market then the SPRING Fund profits from that buying pressure.

Am I crazy or does this make any sense?

If you have a different point of view then please share it with me.

@startail

I'm really looking forward to what your leadership will bring to the community.

I've located what I consider a qualified UX/UI designer who has experience designing for the Monero wallet and website. I've passed his details to Gibbs. Additionally, I have sent him all the links he needs to get started working on outstanding UX issues on GitHub.

Here's the link to his portfolio. germanysbestkeptsecret.com
Here's the link to his work for Monero on GitHub. https://github.com/GBKS/monero-wallet-design
Here's the landing page he designed for Monero. https://www.exploremonero.com/

201808-bitshares-ui - No because I feel we need an actual UI/UX design team to work on this project. I personally feel this WP is more of a bug killing WP so the purpose is misleading.

I'd be eager to discuss your vision and critic for the UI proposal, in the hopes if swaying you. This is your journal so that can be done on another medium as well if you will.

I don't have a fixed role in the worker proposal, but I am actively developing for it.

Kevin,

full support for starting a diary/journal and keep communicating with people trusted you to be Proxy.

My personal suggestions/changes would be following:

OL - Committee - Yes. As early founder of gateways and UIAs being traded, with a lot of liquidity around, I do consider that non-paid position regarding fees and critical topics regarding Reserve Pool are something OL needs to be part of.
UI team worker - Yes. Team is going through some new movement and some new steps. I do encourage and support personally worker for 2 following reasons:
1) To support development of Native dApp BitShares DEX and integration of full functionalities from the blockchain to it - there is no other team to do so.
2) To give a chance to new movement on the team.

If reason number 2) fail to satisfy me after i while i will be remove my vote of support.

Cheers and keep up the good work!

Thanks DL for the feedback.

I like what you've said and have decided to adjust my votes as you requested.

I've added the following response to the UI WP posting.

Thanks for taking the time to publish this new WP.

I was chatting with Stefan Schiessl today about this and here is what I had to say.

I really appreciate this insight into the inner workings of the UI team. Unfortunately, from the community perspective the changes that we've seen have been mostly superficial. That's because we are not developers and don't know how much effort goes into making all the changes along the way.

Since the majority of the community uses the appearance of the reference wallet to guage the effectiveness of the UI WP the lack of major changes leads us to believe that the money has been misspent. I'm sure you can understand why we would think that way.

Bill was doing a good job a posting Steemit articles for every update, but it has been a very long while (4 months ago) since he did that so we just assumed the work had slowed to a trickle even though the WP was receiving funding.

Now I'm aware that this was related to a manpower issue, but this could have been communicated to the community in a more transparent way. Not everyone knows how to use GitHub so that's not the best way to keep every non-technical member on the same page.

I will contact a career specialist I work with to see if he has any UX/UI designers that might be interested in working with your team. The company I work for, CareerFoundry, is an online bootcamp that teaches UX design, UI design, and Web Development courses so we are always looking for new jobs for our graduates. I know we (BitShares) are looking for someone with more experience so I will also engage with our mentor/tutor team to see if they have any leads for us since the mentors and tutor we use have much more experience in UX/UI.

For now, I will support this WP, but if I continue to see very little changes made on the outward appearance and ease of use of the reference wallet I will strongly consider retracting my support until such time as my supports and I feel it's worth their votes.
