exploring the possibility of having a mobile catalog here in the Sage
Library System, but we don't quite know where to get started. Is there
already a mobile skin included with 2.2 or 2.3? If not, would anyone care
to share templates of their mobile catalog with us?

Is there anything specifically non-mobile about the TPAC on 2.3 that you've
encountered? Apart from possibly disabling the JavaScript so that it
wouldn't have to download the meg of code for auto suggest (which we
provide a config var to do), I would be interested in knowing what you
think a mobile skin would need, as the TPAC works quite well with the
Android devices at my disposal.

Note: in 2.3 we put a fair amount of effort into reducing the fixed-width
design of the TPAC, improving its accessibility and localisation support,
making it easier to skin... and that effort has continued beyond 2.3.  I
hope we can maintain our focus on producing one good user experience. Maybe
one of the next steps is to work towards a more responsive design?
