I also think it would be best if we continued with the first prototype for now. Also because it will only need tweaking of the graphic files we already have.

I have created a *very* general Jira-task "Finsih web UI" https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ESME-100 and included it in Release 1.0. There are screenshots of the TechEd prototype as well the mockup of the message screen, mainly so that David can see what we would like to build.

Dick, which branch have you worked in when you have done changes to the UI? Mrinal's UI branch?

Mrinal did 2 prototypes - one for the TechEd and one that was based on
Bill's ideas. I'd like to be able to use Mrinal's first prototype for
this first release and then move this UI to the prototype with Bill's
design in the second release.

What we have to remember is that the first UI prototype was based on
the old ESME where there was little separation between UI and scala
code  - this probably will lead to more wor to convert into the new
architecture.

Dick,
So your suggestion is that we continue with what Mrinal and you have worked
on?
With the sidebars (and accordion) from Bill's document?

Tried and it didn't work :-<

We do have the html files now which is the most important thing.

I looked for a working deplyoment with Mrinal's old war file but I'm
having some trouble - it appears to be broken for some reason
(http://esmecloudserver.dickhirsch.staxapps.net/).

I've just finished committing a bunch of UI-related changes. I've
gotten most of the static strings out of the HTML files and added tons
of tabs to beautify our UI.

The message page is still too ugly in my opinion to have a releaseyet. I'd be satisfied with adding tabs for the "Your timeline", "Public Timeline" and "Your followers" and beautifying the stuff on the right
hand side.

Let's make it as simple and clean as possible.

Hi,

I know we have had this discussion a thousand times before, but there

seems

to be enough of us on the team to make a push towards finishing the
UI.
Dave has some time on his hands, and I will try to free up some time
at
work this week and next week. At least enough time to finish the

graphics.

Before we start a push on the UI, I still think we need to agree how
to
proceed with it.
My idea is to do something simple, but functional, and take it from

there.

I think if we start building "Bill's UI" we will never finish.
(nothing
wrong with the design, I am just thinking in terms of the team and
how

much

time we have available to build a UI)

I am thinking something in lines of the UI we built for TechEd last

year.

Dick, do you still have the version with that UI somewhere? If you
do,
could you deploy it to Stax so that Dave can take a look at it?
