Thanks a lot for your offer - we'll do that, of course. On the other
hand, sometimes we get requests from other community members - please
consider to jump in as you like. If you have any questions, or need some
historical background, we're ready to help.

To give you three examples what matters at the moment ... one thing
still missing for the community are web banners that "spread the word"
for LibreOffice. Nobody found the time yet to work on that, although
people regularly ask. The most recent ones (following our branding
language) are here:
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Design/FoundationChallenge#LibreOffice_Frontpage

Another thing that will get important in the next time ... all the
LibreOffice graphics in the software and the installer. That's
important, since we need to distinguish whether a community member made
the software available (thus: using a logo without the subline "The
Document Foundation") and one version with the logo. I hope that we can
ask the development to harmonize Splash Screen, About Box (...) first.
And, our logo itself does have some issues that need to be addressed ...
mmmh, still on my todo-list to discuss that here and ask for help.

The third example - Ivan mentioned that he'll work on Download page
improvements in the next time. Since this is a rather big task, maybe
you both can work together (doesn't know whether this makes sense). Here
is what others and I've done so far (incl. a website design from an
usability point-of-view):

I hope this helps a bit ... anything that sounds interesting to you?

Cheers,
Christoph
