Besides the talks and discussions (and the tripping around the island!), most of the time the GNOME Art team spent was in the hacking rooms, working on icon drawings, user interfaces mockups, new ideas for streamlining the desktop and coding the new website layout.

As a work in progress, some changes in the website design appeared while I was putting the new content in the layout (and this still needs to be finished!). The original one Lucas Rocha announced is becoming this (feedback is welcome!):

The plan is to release the beta website together with GNOME 2.28. For this, a lot of work needs to be done, including all the teams — content, design and CMS. We got a bit late in the schedule, but we can still get everything ready in time.

If you want to make history and help the GNOME website development, subscribe the marketing list (for the content and design areas) and the web mailing list for the plone implementation and introduce yourself .
