[LAD] Open Source Design (paid and pro bono design)

[Louigi Verona]

Interesting that on their goals page they never mention "users" or
"customers". So how are they going to understand what works if users are
never consulted? This could be a mistake that would make the whole
initiative void. Designers should help design the software, but it has to
be based on users feedback, with constant testing and iterations. I don't
see any process there that would actually involve actual users.
