Hi all,

Sorry, I must admit that I skip most mails related to the website. This 
is really not due to a lack of interest or because I dislike the 
proposals, but mostly to keep my workload manageable. I would very 
gladely let someone else entirely manage the website, and I think 
Vincent's position is rather similar. Should probably have made it clear 
from the beginning. That being said I agree that the developers need to 
give some feedback.

I also really like the split audio / video part, and agree with Farid 
that the filmstrip is kind of outdated, but if you have ideas for a 
small change that would make the video part easier to recognize it would 
be nice.

Another question is how do you see the logo / application icon 
relationship ?

I think the app icon should somehow relate to the logo, so do you think 
we should create a new app icon ?

Keep up the good work, and thanks Jesse and others for stepping into 
this as I think it is important that the changes can be discussed (even 
if I really don't participate a lot).
