No, but in honesty I think Omar's is better. Not that Lukacz is bad, but 
Omar's currently takes into account the direction web design is going. 
If you look at Mozilla.org, RedHat etc...

Well to be honest, no we don't. I don't see it up on the website. I 
don't have my paycheck until the money is in the bank as they say.

My understanding was that the vote was to actually get Omar's design in 
place. It is also my understanding that Omar's design works with the 
existing framework (code etc..). That means, in theory that we could 
have a new design in place with a reasonable amount of work.

Sincerely,
