The reason why I asked is because I was wondering if we should create
a new UI branch so that we can keep the work that Mrinal did based on
Bill's work?

I worked on the second version that Mrinal made that was based on
Bill's ideas. "Worked" -- I tried to adapt the messages page so that
it worked in lift. I was only partly successful. I would ignore my
changes to the messages.html page.
The work on the UI that I have recently performed should still work
with Mrinal's initial version (the one in the screenshots).

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

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.

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?
