This is the proposed JPAKE screen text, from the meeting last week:
http://cl.ly/0Q18120J18273W2i0X0I

Subheader: "Enter this code on your desktop"
Body:  "Select "Pair a Device" in the Sync section of your desktop Firefox options. Show me how"  -- with the "show me how" being a link to the SUMO article.

One revision to this is to say "computer" rather than "desktop" in the subheader
If this is already landed, then great; otherwise, we are likely to be late for string freeze, because it won't happen today or tomorrow. No idea what happens then...
Initial round of string changes:
https://github.com/mozilla-services/android-sync/commit/6de0b27fb71c006100600488ea64b81859cfb9b4

String revision from comment 1:
https://github.com/mozilla-services/android-sync/commit/ca061767377bddabef53710d1999b428826fd727

I don't think the first one has landed in MC yet, was just merged into github yesterday (pull request #30: string-changes).

Regressions in J-PAKE screen:

* Clickable links are unstyled. If I didn't already know, I'd be really confused by how to get to the advanced screen.
* I might be crazy, but it looks like the J-PAKE code itself is more tightly spaced. It was quite hard to read. I would tend to prefer fixed-width display, given that these aren't words.
* Sync icon is blurred. You need to make sure you pick the right one and set it to the correct size.


Comments that aren't strictly regressions:

* "Advanced setup" ought to be further from the J-PAKE code. I was scared of accidentally tapping something I shouldn't.
* Wow, all that black and white looks intimidating. I found the old screen altogether more inviting.
* Inadequate margins — text appears to be only 1em from the edge of the screen.
* Two headings. Confusing, particularly because one of them is the same size as body text but missing punctuation.
Comments on credentials screen:

* I have a real personal dislike of the 100%-width text entry boxes. It looks unstyled. Madhava's mockups don't address this case.
Observation: Madhava's mocks align with our original design goals for the J-PAKE UI, which used a black-on-white scheme for each code fragment to evoke the appearance of the destination text boxes on the other device.

(See Fennec 10 and desktop Firefox.)

The UI as implemented has a white code on a black background instead. Was this intentional, or an accidental omission?

nice separation now
