*About Forms*
We have a great deal of forms in GeoNode, most of them are currently
ExtJS based Javascript forms but some of them are default Django forms
(using html divs).
Is having a consistent forms "theme" on GeoNode something we should shoot for?
If the answer is yes, then here are a couple of projects that are
worth looking at to take some inspiration:
1. django-extjs: http://github.com/revolunet/django-extjs/
A way to turn Django forms into ExtJs forms to allow us to use
just ExtJs forms in GeoNode.
2. UniForm http://code.google.com/p/django-uni-form/
http://sprawsm.com/uni-form/
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Section_508
A library focused in usability and beauty for Django forms
(django-uni-form) and uni-form (for plain html forms).
My 2 pesos,
Ariel.

+1 on a consistent form theme
When we get some of Chris Patterson's time when he comes back from vacation,
we should discuss more about best practices for implementing this with him
