Is that a trustee or a council thing? Well probably everybody would like
to have an improved website, shall we go back with a reopened contest?

I do like polling from time to time all the people to get a clue, pr
people could help passing the news or doing the polling by themselves,
nothing exactly related to the trustee IMHO.

Ehm, trustee or council? Devrel/userrel in the very end.

Beside the trustee vs council vs $project points I like your summary =)
