Cool! Thank you!

Creating a mock-up is a good way to get some initial feedback and
helps to think about problems that might occur. Probably Sean or
another designer will take a final look at the final work you create
in terms of design.

One question that came to my mind while looking at the dashboard was:
"what happens if we click on custom widgets?"

Btw have you seen our icon fonts?

We have an own at
https://github.com/apache/couchdb-fauxton/blob/master/assets/fonts/styleguide/fauxtonicon-preview.html
and additionally support the glyphicons from bootstrap 2.3:
http://getbootstrap.com/2.3.2/base-css.html#icons


Best,
Robert
