* A cleaner UI, with a simpler design for available and inactive widgets, and more emphasis on your sidebars.
* Available widgets and sidebars expand to two columns at larger screen sizes making it easier to manage sites with lots of sidebars.
* New dropzone indicator for empty sidebars.

Color scheme selection on your own profile page gives you a preview and autosaves the selection.
Also introduces the usage of a preprocessor for core files, namely Sass. For 3.8, we will not expand its implementation past the color schemes. This does require Ruby as well as Sass 3.3.0+ due to the usage of the sourcemap option.
Note that only the default color scheme is available when running out of src. Use build to test the rest as well as the color picker.

* Makes the admin fully responsive down to 320px wide.
* Adds a touch-optimized main menu that can be opened and closed from the toolbar.
* Size and positioning adjustments to icons, buttons, and text elements for better touch usability.
A few changes since MP6:
* Removed jQuery mobile. This script was used to add swipe controls to open/close the sidebar menu. This feature was apparently buggy and due to the pending demise of jQuery mobile, it was removed.
* Removed use of Backbone.js. Adding Backbone.js to this script would add a dependency of Backbone.js for all of the admin. Additionally, it was used to add a menu item. Instead of doing that, it was added via the admin menu API. This also fixes a bad delay in the item showing in the menu.
* CSS layout is standardized. Comments have also been cleaned up.
* Jetpack and Akismet code is removed.
* RTL CSS is removed.
* JS passes hinting other than one small issue that will likely be removed when parts of the code are reviewed.
A number of areas for improvement remain; we're tracking these issues in the comments of #25858.

RTL files are now created on build for core CSS files. These files replace the LTR file completely, rather than being in addition to the existing LTR file.
Benefits:
* For the user: less CSS is served in RTL, less HTTP requests on the frontend, and less work for the browser.
* For the core developer: Let the tools do the work.
Notes for core development:
* The file generation task is `grunt rtl`.
* `grunt watch` now handles generating RTL files in /build when a CSS file in /src is saved.
* /src is now locked to LTR. RTL testing must occur via /build. When attempting to run an RTL text direction with /src, an admin notice will display.
Expect RTL bugs. Please report them.

Still to come: more color schemes, a responsive component, and more.

The page includes a giant password meter that serves as both an animated example and a working demo. How cool is that?

- Add a "Update Translations" stand-alone button to the updates page
- Shift Language feedback to before update process completion action links & limit the verbosity of output (name + success/errors)
- Simplify/combine the language update descriptive string to only include a plugin/theme name
- Properly handle cache clearing after language updates to prevent langs being repeditively updated
- Display a "All items up to date" string when there's nothing to do
- Reduce the 'Connection Information' from a <h2> to a <h3> to remove duplicate h2's and screen icons from update screens
- Fix the Direct filesystem method not being used for Language updates because WP_LANG_DIR doesn't exist (check it's parent for writable instead)

* New task runner (Grunt), configured to copy a built WordPress to build/.
* svn:ignore and .gitignore for Gruntfile.js, wp-config.php, and node.js.
* Remove Akismet external from develop.svn. Still exists in core.svn.
* Drop minified files from src/. The build process will now generate these.
