Hello,
Maybe it's not finished yet or I missed something, but if I browse this
page:
http://design.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Design/MailArchiveApplication
If I'm not authentified, I can see the page.
If I log in (in order to edit the page), I can't even see the page ("You
are not allowed to view this document or perform this action ...").

I agree with Vincent, in practice the page about Mail archive I work on
(listed above) describes both UI and Code of the app. By the way it
contradicts the name of the whole subwiki ("design.xwiki.org"), considering
the scope of this subwiki is not limited to proposals on visual aspects, so
it should not be the same term IMO for the whole subwiki and for this
category Design (vs Implementation), or then you should call the subwiki "
design-and-implementation.xwiki.org" :) . Design vs Implementation makes me
think of Architecture vs Code but maybe it's a developer-centric view :)
