I can't make it next week, we have an infomeeting away from home that night.
I reviewed some ui bugs on dev.plone.org, I'll add the progress to the hangout notes.
Also, like Thijs' tickets, some more input might be needed on some of the existing ui tickets, so I'll try to add some to the agenda for next week's ui meeting.
I'll add my thoughts on https://dev.plone.org/ticket/13355 and https://dev.plone.org/ticket/13358 in the tickets by then...
Sorry, it's been a bit hectic the last few weeks here, so didn't make much progress...
