Thats what we'll do next week.	Example	Start looking at individual Issue pages and taking a close look at what happens there from Issue reporting to resolution and task creation.

First design is the main page: Taxi App Home page. Ideas previously submitted can be used if needed.	Joy: (1) When submitting an issue or idea, search existing entries and let user know e.g. "These previously submitted issues may be related to your issue." (2) 'Save as draft' for all website items that can be submitted || -
