Progress update

For the last week we've been working on development of a user interface (UI) for the Steem Proposal System. We've also been making final updates to the blockchain level implementation and API based on usability issues and bugs we've found during testing and coding for the UI. We launched an updated public testnet today with those changes.

Preliminary look at the new UI

We're still doing minor tweaks to the UI, but here is what it looks like presently:

Note that the proposals will be sorted by total vote counts in the final version, this is just an early mockup.

We haven't tested the mobile view much yet, but in a quick test I did, it looks like this right now:

What's next

At this point, I expect all code changes to both the blockchain code and to the UI code to be completed by this coming Tuesday. After that, we'll check-in with Steemit and see what is the best way to handle the official release (i.e. whether we will make a release or if they plan to incorporate the changes into a release with additional changes of their own like MIRA).
