Schendje, Emichan, Sijis and I took half an hour or so after the meeting
too to have an open discussion about the new www.fpo designs, and it was
really useful to just have an easy informal discussion. So I think maybe
we should try to make the 30 minutes or so after a meeting an informal
kind of social time we can freely talk about whatever we want without an
agenda, just to have fun / hang out or to have some nice discussions.

One of the topics we talked about after the meeting was how we're still
focusing more on artwork than UX. So Emichan filed a couple tickets for
projects we could work on for some UX experience:


* https://fedorahosted.org/design-team/ticket/147 Installer UI refresh
* https://fedorahosted.org/design-team/ticket/146 Live USB creator UI
refresh

Both the installer and liveusb creator are owned by Fedora upstream, and
both are some of the very first parts of Fedora that our users see when
they first try it, so making those experiences more polished is really
important.
