Weekly Gaia Development Meeting

Talking this week

~30-45 minutes: Casey Yee and Przemek Abratowski, Firefox OS UX team, will present on the forthcoming visual direction for Firefox OS, on styles built in code for multiple form factors, and more. The Firefox OS visual refresh is high priority for the 2.0 release later this year, and this presentation will add context and detail about what "visual refresh" means.
