^ which includes NextUI being present in the app's UI

With short delay we now have Calendar, Contacts and Mail releases with Nextcloud 25 compatibility and the new user interface changes on apps.nextcloud.com. As a next step we will make sure that UI changes look well and designed. For Mail there is already a big pile of tickets to be worked on, for Calendar and Contacts please create ticket for anything you encounter. Milestone links have been added to the schedule above.

Tomorrow, September 20th 2022, we will design-review Calendar and Contacts with the design team in the Tuesday 2PM CET call design call at https://cloud.nextcloud.com/call/gqff69i8.
