Adding a tab - need to add a tab, then a column, then a channel - if we could slim this down that would be a huge improvement in and of itself.
Customisation Discussion
- Not happy with the current customisation options - need improvements to ease of use, accessibility and end-user discovery.
- Consensus that we are turning it off or end-users are not using it - quite a lot of users don't use because it's not that important to them

Personalisation handled pretty well with ALM and DLM, but customisation is not very good at all.
Personalistion is pretty hard via fragments.xml and we wouldn't like to see this in a user preferences style thing either. Not good from either a user or administrator side of things.Concrete
Actions:
- Need Documentation of conventions, standards and requirements
- Tutorial style guidance to illustrate common usage, styles, design intentions
- Need a Standing Committee / Interest Group / Discussion Group to continue discussion and keep focus around UI. If anyone can devote any time to this- let Jason Shao know
Immediate short terms goals for 2.6
- Jason taking the Rutgers theme, ripping out the logos and adding to possibly 2.5.1. and 2.6
- Collier @ VT will contribute the VT theme - with icons ripped out etc
*Duffy at Arizona - can add in some tree-controls type layouts.
