The IBM Collaboration Solutions (ICS) Information Development team creates information and help documentation for IBM collaboration Solutions products. In a continuing effort to create product documentation that is tailored to the user and his/her environment the ICS Information Development team is piloting a new concept: the addition of filters to IBM Connections installation documentation. And they want your input on how the filters work.

Rather than a user being confronted by documentation that includes information on all supported operating systems, application servers, database systems, LDAPs, etc., the new filters allow the documentation to be filtered based on your the user's choice of operating system and database information.

The ICS Development team has set up a User Experience (UX) Lab with samples of these filters which show how the documentation can be filtered. They want to get your feedback on what you think of the filtered documentation samples and get your input on what they can do to ensure the documentation is easy to read, useful, and effective.

Whether you have done a Connection installation in the past, are planning to do one in the near future, or have done an installation of another ICS product, the IBM Collaboration Solutions Information Development team wants to hear from you!

Join the IBM Connections Installation Filtering documentation community in the Online UX Lab, view the before and after samples, and give your feedback!

But hurry, this community is only open for feedback until September 2, 2011.  Participate!
