Dear Elisa user,
We have been working on a new Elisa interface for months: the goal was
to make navigation easier and to give it a more professional look. You
will now be able to access your media in a more direct way and enjoy a
completely new interface.
We are now close to finishing this "relook", as we call it here, and we
are proud to be able to share a first prototype with you. We are very
curious to have your feedback and your ideas, so don't be shy and tell
us what you like, what you don't like and what you would improve!
Are you curious? Go ahead and try it out! You will find instructions to
install it on the wiki:

Please remember that this version is only to be considered a prototype.
We are still working on polishing it up a bit more, so don't be
concerned if you see it is a bit rough around the edges. If you want to
see how it will look like, check out the following screenshots:

There are furthermore some functions that are not available yet or not
working correctly. We have set up a wiki page with all the known issues
and we will take care to update it on a daily basis:

To report problems, we ship a “Problem report” application with the
installer for all Windows users, which allows you to report bugs or
problems in an easy, step-by-step way. The application gathers info on
your configuration and your settings and puts it all together into a
ticket on Launchpad. If you provide your email address, the application
will send you an email containing a link to the bug report where you
will be able to follow the progress. All other users can report bugs as
usual directly in Launchpad.
For appraisal and discussion, please use the mailing list - we want to
hear them all!
Looking forward to hearing from you,
Your Elisa team
