UX design

Query for polish bugs: http://bit.ly/fennec-polish (put [polish] in whiteboard to add to the list)

• Summary:
  • 33 bugs marked as polish (+10 from last week)
    • 11 blocking 1.0 (same as last week)
    • 21 nominated (+10 from last week)
    • 1 marked wanted (same)
  • for about 3-5 of those, I'm figuring out what design changes to make; others have a course of action in the bug

• weave team implementing a revised fennec weave UI
