I was under the impression that linuxaudio.org is a NPO, implying a mission not a profession. For instance: Would linuxaudio.org pay a designer if it had the means to do so? - or is it just a matter of the license the design will be released under? - or does it need sound right? - the ironic conclusion: linuxaudio.org even lacks funding for ideological discussions. - things here are shaped from what falls from the sky and the briefings are dubbed jam-sessions ;) back from the off-topic. What I actually meant to say in the first place is that: IMHO Thorsten's "release early, release often" approach and mailing-list discussion is quite preferable to a corporate identity briefing [for linuxaudio.org]. and he's been courteous and patient which are feat. that professional designers often lack! The apps site as is does not *look* professional (meaning of marketing), it's actually rather amateurish ([be]loved, cared about, blessed). #robin
