Oh, news to me. I kind of thought that we were not going to implement
full UI in sprint, and only discuss it, so Alan (from what I can
recall he wanted to do redo schooltool UI, as I didn't really want to
do that) would know where to go when he will do the UI work by
himself.

Is it really feasible to decide upon the UI using email, and then
implement it fully during a quite busy week without some serious
consequences like a code a quality hit and work that will have to be
performed after the sprint? Especially keeping in mind CanDo
integration and schooltool instance that is used by Lyceum.

We are going to be releasing soon and there are parts of the system
that were only tested by Tom, me and lyceum, and there are so many
improvements they want me to do for the journal (that would make
journal a lot more useful for teachers) and there are quite many
things to improve when it comes to multiple terms, that I am not
really sure we should add a total UI rewrite on top of that before the
release... From what I can recall we haven't even discussed such
possibility during your stay in Vilnius, and I am not sure we can do
it this year without dropping some other features fixes or
improvements ...
