From IRC in #mobile yesterday:

The latest mocks I have seen are a

https://www.dropbox.com/sh/ioi2vtkc6gdgekp/AACv9_a5X9WMU47mVOvV9Y5xa?dl=0

I have two concerns with these mocks:
* First, I'm not certain rich notifications are possible "on the web", or even using Gecko notifications.  So that /might/ be possible with a Java addon, but it's not trivial.
* Second, the rich "share to Firefox" UX almost certainly /can't/ be achieved with an addon.

I haven't a clue how these concerns will be resolved, but antlam and sevaan are on the hook to push this forward.

NI'ing Pau from Telefonica as he is working on these wireframes.

I'd like to start with knowing where the latest mocks reside so the fennec UX team has a chance to look them over and provide feedback before we get too deep in the technical implementation.

Hi all,

Nick says, all wireframes are in that dropbox link he pasted in his post:

https://www.dropbox.com/sh/ioi2vtkc6gdgekp/AACv9_a5X9WMU47mVOvV9Y5xa?dl=0

I updated them all yesterday. 

It'd be great to know what is possible to do (regarding issues arose by Nick) and any other technical stuff that might represent a change in this approach.

The thing here is that we want to leverage as much as possible Android's user experience and use their own patterns to not reinvent the wheel.

Fab stuff. Let me discuss with Darrin et al for a quick review on our side and we can then discuss any proposed changes! I think we all want the same thing - consistency across the experience, ease of implementation, and time-to-market.

NI-ing Darrin for his radar.

Talked with Kar offline, she is going to provide Anthony with a list of mvp requirements that he will provide some quick wireframes for to unblock eng work from starting.

Hey Pau,

Sorry for the late reply, we just had a chance to sync up on this bug a bit more. Thanks for following up :)

In short, since we mentioned the importance of consistency across the UI/UX, I came up with alternatives for your awesome flows that follow our UI guidelines a bit better. If you want to see examples of this UI in action, they most closely resemble our Addons, Downloads, and Logins manager pages.

The scope that these mocks cover also reiterate the scope in which we want to tackle as a "V1". 

Note: I've not included the "call controls" UI you have in your mocks (along the bottom of the screen). But I think if this is web-based, we can still do that but it'll just be on top of our UI that I'm proposing. 

But I'll let Barbara and Karen speak a little bit more to that.

Finally, I've attached our mocks here but I think we might need to chat over a video call to give you the full context. Let me know what works for your schedule.

Thanks for your reply, Anthony! I'll take a look at your proposal.

It'd be great to meet and discuss about that. I would also like my PM, Jorge, to be involved in the chat as well since he could give even more context.

How about scheduling the meeting for next week? We would need it to be in our afternoon in order to match your time zone. Wednesday before our 7:30 PM would be awesome :)

Let me know if it works for you.

[Barbara Bermes [:barbara] - NI please!]

Hi Pau,
I'm the product manager for Fennec Android -- I'm happy to set something up for next week Wednesday. 

I'll send out an invite shortly, would you mind fwd that invite to your PM as well?

Do you have access to our Vidyo system, if not, we can setup a Google hangout.

Hi Barbara,

Invite received. Vidyo works for me. I'll fwd the invite to Jorge then.
Thanks!

I'm going to close this bug down and we can re-open it later if/when we need to, although we'll likely get some new bugs on file relating to our new direction!

Pau - hopefully you have some cues about making it look & feel more Firefox-y as well, so we're also keen to continue collaborating even with this new change of direction to ensure a good consistent feel across apps!
