Raw message 

Hi Kleis,

I like your effort very much, it definitely looks way better than the 
current interface. I particularly like the new concept of a dashboard. 

With all my enthusiasm, I'd like to add three comments:
* The dashboard looks great on a high-resolution screen, but it is too 
crammed on a XGA screen. Are you planning to make the amount of information 
configurable?
* Most of the interface is the same as the current one, just with new 
looks. When putting so much work into optical polish, maybe it is also a 
good moment to discuss the underlying flow of interaction?
* While the current interface may look a bit antiquated, it is functional. 
As the clients don't get in touch with the administration interface, looks 
is not as important as it is with the UAM. But if the looks change, I would 
like all interfaces to look consistent, this would give the project an even 
more professional appearance. Are you in contact with Tim about that?

Is the current state of your code publicly available for us to try out?

Thank you very much for the effort you put into this.
Alan
