[thegostev]

Hi, we've started UI Revamp project where first public style guide for CKAN will be delivered. It'll define the basis for restyling out-of-the-box CKAN.

Let's discuss what notable implementations are there and why we like them. Here the interest is to discuss style, fonts, spacing but we can go deeper and touch UX as well.

My initial input is a board with 3 CKAN implementations:
