Description Matthias Clasen 2013-10-16 16:00:29 UTC
(from Montreal summit session)

The login section does not contain anything related to login.

It should only show up for express-installed boxes, where we have the information about username and password, and then it should show those.

Instead, there should be a more general 'System' section that would contain more general metadata, such as install time, last used, amount of storage, etc

Do I understand correctly that we also want the stuff we have under 'login' in there too? mccann?
Comment 2 Matthias Clasen 2013-11-03 00:33:17 UTC
yes, I think the idea here was to move the stuff thats currenly in 'login' to 'system' and add a real login section only when we have user information.

    properties: Rename "Login" to "General"
    
    Login isn't a very good name for this section, lets rename this to
    "General" on the suggestion of Jakub Steiner and Allan Day.

Will do bit a of shuffling based on new mockups and input from jimmac and aday:

(NOTE: this mockup is currently bit out dated already, hopefully jimmac will update next week).
