Hi Omer,

Currently the shell engineering related to the legacy nux/compiz version 
of Unity is handled inside https://launchpad.net/unity and the shall 
engineering related to the QML/MIR 'Unity Next' shell happens inside 
https://launchpad.net/manhattan so at the moment there isn't any 
crossover on the shell side. However this is something we need to be 
aware of, for example will the new QML based Unity Greeter use a new 
launchpad project or the existing unity-greeter project? My assumption 
is that we will be using new Launchpad projects for the new QML 
re-writes of legacy components.

Because the nux/compiz and QML/MIR versions of Unity are separate 
codebases, it makes sense to keep the UX bugs separated as well.

cheers,
John
