Taxonomy - UX talk with project leaders/brigade leaders

[nikolajbaer]

Overview

If taxonomies are integral to Project Index then adoption user research is key to planning broad deployment.

Action Items:

Talk with project leads at our brigades and find out:

• Are they are willing to use a common taxonomy?
• Do they approve of the current taxonomy or do they have changes to it?
• How do they want to contribute to an updated Taxonomy?
• How should we handle updating taxonomy (e.g., updating LGBT to LGBTQ to LGBTQ+ or LGBTQI, etc) after projects have integrated older terminology into whatever data standard Project Index requires?

This is currently on hold because we need to review issues codeforamerica/civic-tech-taxonomy#22 and codeforamerica/civic-tech-taxonomy#21 before I talk directly to my project leads.
