[Commotion-dev] How to file issue on Commotion-OpenWRT luci theme - really really big font files

The CGI process response is separate from the font issues. Seamus has a
new quickstart revision in the works that should fix the problem.

We have a new staff member here who's interested in testing the
slimmed-down theme package and evaluating the HIG recommendations, so
you will have some additional hands as soon as the HR onboarding wraps up.
