nice work on the "testing" page.  As long as the final design incorported 
the obviously good other idea presented, I would have no problems with him 
heading up the maintainer team.

On the Name
-----------
I'm going to bring this up with no delusions that anything will happen.  Way 
back when we were redesigning kde.org, I solicted a proposal that we remove 
references to "K Desktop Environment" from the website and only use KDE.  
That's because it doesn't matter what KDE stands for anymore.  "Desktop 
Environment" means absolutely NOTHING to anybody but old CDE users.  Just 
like the K now means nothing, KDE should also mean nothing.  I was able, 
back then, to convince enough people to go ahead with it.  Unfortunately, I 
was never a good enough artist to design a replacement logo and could never 
find the time to get an artist to do it.

I mention this because now would be a good time to try it again.  With a new 
website, we could just start dropping all references to the "desktop 
environment" and everybody would be the happier.

Good luck!
