Jennifer is missing, and Mike manages to stop talking just long enough for Nishant Kothary to explain what user experience means, how survey results help to refine content, and what kind of sessions he’s planned for the UX theme at MIX10. Mike talks about session recordings and what they have to do with football, and we learn that 55 brand new sessions were published this week: http://live.visitmix.com/Sessions.

Nishant, are we going to see anything new on the new C9 before Mix? Or maybe a refresh of Oxite? I was surprised to see that both Erik and Mike's site is down.

We do owe an update to the community on this. We're making steady progress on the new UX for Channel 9. Our goal with the update is to focus on performance and reliability along with the UX so it is taking time. One thing we're doing in this update is only using ajax where it makes sense and making sure we have the right test infrastructure in place for performance tuning.

We do 2 week sprints and have most of the dev team 100% on c9 now. once we're through the next couple sprints we'll come onto this week on c9 for an update.

@JoshRoss - Basically, my answer is, "What Jeff said." No planned Oxite updates either...

My site's been getting hammered lately and it's running on a version of Oxite from a year ago (which had no caching at the time ). Seems to be back up as of right now though.

Oxite will not have future releases. Future development from Nathan and I is on Orchard.

Looking forward to seeing progress on Channel 9.
