Hi Jacob,
I edited the JIRA issue related to the re-design of the Infusion Builder
interface: http://issues.fluidproject.org/browse/FLUID-3359.
I linked in the other jira issues that were css and design related, just
to make it easier for you to refer to comments and suggestions noted
during the last round of QA. I'm pretty sure you've already thought
about these comments already, but was just hoping to make sure they are
addressed if possible.
You and I had a quick chat about two weeks ago about converting the
design into javascript. I do have some accessibility questions about the
interface design, but I'm not sure they can be resolved until the
javascript version is done. Is it possible to create a small example
that we can test for accessibility now, or is it just as easy for you to
do the full conversion for us to test?
