I took a look, but did not find any documentation worth giving to you - all important stuff has gone into the interface - so taking it will do the job. Of course there are a lot of things that have not been done (e.g. optimizing detail dialogues (which have simply been taken from the desktop client) - also there are still bugs in calender navigation - but all this does not imply your work. > I would like question whether using the column-based-navigation is actually > > > a > > good decision.
