Off course :) I didn't know it was updated... I'll put it on the issue
queue.

I would replace AFAIK to IMHO :P We're not an enterprise nor we have a boss
that tell us what is our work :) I'm a volunteer remember. Our goal is to
deliver the best website possible for LibreOffice and the Document
Foundation, which includes a lot of things, not just something purely
functional, it's a visual thing, it's an experience, and also, yes, it's
something functional.

"[...] before we even begin to think about a theme for the Drupal instance."
That's sad :( Because if this were a bug report, the status would be
"blocker" (sometimes called "stopper"), that means, we can't continue our
work without resolving this. As Michael Wheatland stated, the design is
fundamental is order to build the Drupal site and that's why we started
working on this first.

+1 I do have the same question :)

Kind regards

Note: BTW No one commented on the design :'(
