Alex was investigating better widgets that plone could integrate the the
conference.

If anyone wants to check out some of the initial findings, take a look at:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Ala3ew8gFf2-dEU4TmtoLUJPbUJIR2dzdDdQaUtEZUE

I have created https://github.com/plone/plone.widgets and
https://github.com/plone/plone.app.widgets to kick some of this off.

Initially, all it does is add a G+ like tag widget to plone using the
chosen js widget(http://harvesthq.github.com/chosen/).

Immediate plans are:

 - use chosen for user selection widget(contributors, editors)
 - use chosen for related item(with a file tree browser pop-up)
 - replace all in and out widgets with it

Just thought I'd let everyone here know what is going on and hopefully get
some more ideas and help.
