 h3. User information 

 * Since when are they using OpenAtlas  
 * Which project is worked on currently 
 %{color:green}-> ENCHANT% 
 * What is liked/disliked 
 %{color:green}-> Overall impression seemed positive% 
 %{color:green}-> Dates at source were deemed unsatisfactory: it turned out that a value type workaround was used to add dates and than suggested/showed that using connected artifacts would be a more preferable solution% 
 * Ideas for improvement (e.g. improved dashboard for quicker navigation to their tasks) 
 %{color:green}-> Sadly we run out of time so postponed it for a later meeting% * What is the workflow when questions or problems arise (manual, Redmine, mail, colleagues, ...) 
 * Are there known bugs, if yes what prevented reporting 
 %{color:green}-> Only one was reported * Are they feel included in the development process 

 h3. %{color:green}Feedback and we created an issue for it: #2348%  

 additional observations% 

 h3. %{color:green}Concluding remarks% 

 * Thanks a lot to Samvel for taking the time for an user research interview 
 * It was very productive and informative. Sadly, we run out of time after 2 hours but there will most certainly be a follow up meeting. 
 * One issue that became apparent was the use of notes. They are not part of model and we may should communicate that more clearly -> #2349 
   A very useful feature to use instead for annotations is already planned: #2079 Text annotation
