+1 for starting from scatch (but I wouldn't completely throw away JStaniek's 
mockups, they contain some quite interesting ideas imho). However, in case we 
want them to test our ideas on that, we'd need to have something ready for 
testing by March. So if you think we can come up with some design ideas and 
some interactive prototype/mockup, I'd say that would make sense.
