Gary,

Thanks so much for compiling this list. I think you've got everything  
covered. The mockups look really nice - great job!

I think you mean the Fluid example of uP3 or do you actually mean a  
live instance of uPortal?

> Do we have any indication when that will be available?

Anastasia and I are currently working on the blocker bugs for the  
prototype: Fluid-407 and Fluid-563. We are making good progress on  
them and we think we will have a solution by the end of the week.

It would be wonderful to have your help with styling! The Fluid up3  
example was shrunk down from the actual up3 skin in order to limit the  
number of files in the Fluid repository. So instead of the multiple  
css files that uPortal comes with you'll only see one.
https://source.fluidproject.org/svn/fluid/components/trunk/src/webapp/sample-code/reorderer/portal/portal.css

If you'd like to send us the new styles or create a patch to that file  
to include the new styles that would be great.

Thanks!

Michelle
