A new version of the Flow Prototype has been released. This version has ''many'' changes, not the least of which is that it approaches full functionality.
You may play with it here:
http://unicorn.wmflabs.org/flow/
Release notes are here:
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Flow_Portal/Interactive_Prototype This is a pretty heavy change. Here are the tl;dr release notes:
* Many elements removed (author metadata, post counts, "collapse all" button) * New topic dialog is single element * Fixed header on scroll * Many visual changes to conform to new version of Agora styling * Posted replies should now go to correct position (with animation) * All dates now have hover change instead of tipsy; clicking produces permanent link dialog * Removed "chaos" modes * Added "admin" toggle (turns user into admin) * Added many moderation functions: edit/delete/restore post, delete/restore/close/supress topic, edit topic title * Added "history" functionality for topics and posts * Read posts are now open by default (experimental) * Killed several features not in the minimum viable product. * Fake-up a VisualEditor toolbar in textareas (non-functional)

This isn't a product, so there isn't a place for bugs. And I am the designer.

Well, it's not a product (yet), so there's no place in BZ to file bugs (yet). I assume any bugs or feedback could be provided in this thread though :)

OK. First, looks pretty good. Nice work! I have just one comment: There are quite a lot of symbols with not much explanation. What's the difference between the conversation having a star on it, having a dot above the collapse arrow, and having an @ symbol on it? Also, why are some usernames green and others gray?

I've had the same impression as Tyler; there's a lot of noisy symbols there with no explanation. It would be bearable is they had tips displayed on hover (using the "title" HTML attribute), but still quite annoying.
Less icons, please? Feel free to replace them with some text :)

Sad to see the claims that VE will not become mandatory were, ah, not entirely factual.

Green header = Unread, new message.
The green dot indicates that there are unread messages in the topic.
The @ symbol indicates that you were mentioned in the post (or topic, depending on if the topic is "closed")
And the Star is the "subscribe" function. It's like watchlisting, but for single topics.
As far as tooltips go, they existed in earlier versions but they were incredibly annoying so they were removed.

Okay, cool but you explaining it here doesn't make this any clearer when someone's looking at it.

Annoying to whom? Tooltips are nice (unless they're JavaScript-based, then they do in fact usually suck).
