[Brian Fromme <brian.fromme@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

As you probably know by now, our UI design expert, Martin Albisetti, has
taken a new job within Canonical.  This leaves us with the need to make a
major change in the way we deal with UI reviews.  I have met with Iain
Farrell, the project manager for the Design group.  We have agreed to be the
points of contact for UI review requests from Launchpad to the Design team.

The main reason we choose to do this at this point is to manage the
challenges of UI review requests.  The Design team has several major
projects underway.  They will be able to work with our teams, but the
response time and needs for more detailed Launchpad knowledge must be
managed early on.

Please contact me when you are in need of a UI review.  I will work with the
Design team to ensure your request is being handled and that blocking issues
are being solved.

Next week, I will begin an update to the UIDesignProcess wiki page.

Please be patient while we manage the this transition.  I'm certain we can
make the process smoother over time.

 regards,
 Brian
