Tona,

Great points! We totally need to address all of this.

Arash, perhaps you can get some iconic thumbnails together that show the 
various versions of UIO. I think that means the following:

We are having a lot of floating panel conversations lately in Cloud4All. We 
will need to make those files finable in the wiki as well…

And Tona, you're spot on with the need for a page that explains the numerous 
projects. I was working on an OmniGraffle file this morning to try to show it 
visually. I'll plunk it into the wiki as soon as I get it cleaned up! Is that 
what you meant?

Thanks!
Jess
