Please note: This schedule is for OpenStack Active Technical Contributors participating in the Icehouse Design Summit sessions in Hong Kong. These are working sessions to determine the roadmap of the Icehouse release and make decisions across the project.

Current information architecture of OpenStack UI is experiencing various issues (horizontal/vertical scaling, usability, etc) and there is common agreement on its improvement.
Thanks to David Lyle's RBAC support [0] which was added to Horizon and there is plan for its extension, we would like to propose new IA to enhance usability and user experience when using OpenStack UI. I would like to have initial proposal for IA enhancements one week before Summit (link should appear in related blueprint).
In this session, I would like to: * shortly cover current state and explain usability issues, * introduce initial proposal of IA improvements, * open discussion and try to find agreement on its future look and regulations when new sections are being added.
