Basically it means a different hildon desktop layout. It is an adaptation of wazds ideas on his blog. It is in essence a resolution independent layout with a 52px high marquee on top, as wide as the screen and no sidebar.

App wise it shouldn't have any effect. Same hildon api as in Fremantle. It is also an experimental layout, so it is up for discussion.
