• dragging contacts
from panels to a venue
• highlighting related
items

4. Scenario 1: documents
1. I create a new document in a venue,
using a standard Linux application
2. I save it through a dialog that shows
venues in the file system instead of
folders
3. It is placed then in the venue I saved it to
4. I re-open, edit, and re-save the document
5. I drag and drop the document from one
venue to another, where I can reopen,
edit, and save it

6. Scenario 2: email
1. I send an email to someone
• me on another email address, or you if you have your PC on
2. The message stays in the venue where I’ve
written it, and it arrives to its receipient
3. I receive the replies to the message within the
same venue
4. I can use highlight to see related messages
