This falls beyond the scope of "quick fixes" but I think it's important. I realized that these docs came out great and we're getting great feedback, but, having spent so much time with subject-matter experts and trying to get that audience on board with our HMDA project, and as a member of the dev community myself, I wasn't writing to convince someone like me, but to convince them. After all, modernizing this data was the big challenge of the [cf.gov/hmda](consumerfinance.gov/hmda) effort. So in this Open Tech vein, devs deserve as much attention as an audience as our target audience received in our HMDA project–especially after getting great feedback from them. Originally, the title of this milestone was "Targeting two audiences" but it really is bringing two audiences together. We can't make the best things with this data without collaboration.
No due date•2/7 issues closedOn April 24th, @18f hosted an API usability session where a handful of devs from the private sector reviewed existing government documentation. Our HMDA Docs were part of the sites reviewed and we got useful, real feedback. :thumbsup: 18f took the initiative to get much-needed usability sessions rolling and we can help it stay alive by following through with quick fixes and a simple backlog. This milestone represents the first round of fixes–we committed to three things at the session. I'll be describing our usability findings in an actionable way by making an issue about them.
