06:13 <tomeu> welcome, remora rocks ;)  
06:16 <tomeu> well, it is working very well for us
06:16 <tomeu> and the code base is the best php web app I have ever seen
06:25 <tomeu> I was very impressed by how css is used, also by that single png image containing all the backgrounds
06:26 <tomeu> we have mostly used css to hide unused stuff by now, but we should start soon to change the look to make it more similar to the sugarlabs sites

You said it, you can't unsay it! <3 :)
