Hi all,

I created some designs to add more detail about finding topics in Flow
(search, ToC, filtering and sorting) based on your feedback (thanks for the
feedback!).

I still want to iterate on the design for consistency and other
improvements but I wanted to share them earlier. I published the designs at
Commons <https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Flow-search-details.pdf> and
created a slide deck version
<https://docs.google.com/a/wikimedia.org/presentation/d/1DQabV3mjE9ReV9zs1qAi8u_A5560QEVX4aK95pc0Whs/edit?usp=sharing>
to allow comments in context.

With this and the former prototype I think we can start planning some
research sessions to check with users which ideas work and which ones we
need to focus on improving.

Feel free to provide any feedback.

Pau
