Mimi Yin	Documentation	In progress		Met with Jed (as the prototypical end-user of the Design team's documents). Come out with a set of targetted feedback to be implemented over the next few weeks. Came up with use case framework for workflow and UI component documentation. Need to rationalize that with Brian's documentation structure.

Mimi Yin	Queries / Collections / Views	In progress		Most of this week has been spent on the structure design of Collections, their relationships to queries (rules), program actions (both user-facing and under the hood) and views. After meeting with Mitch on Friday, we think we have a coherent story about the first 2 items and a good idea of how complicated the issue of "views and collections" will be. I have been tasked with doing a first pass at writing up the proposal. I also have a proposal for workflow and UI affordances for how collections are created, managed and edited as well as how rules are built and they integrate with filters. (The proposal has not been reviewed by the design team.) We still need a dedicated conversation about search and views.
