Given how many of the candidates for the board in the election just concluded ran on an implicit or explicit platform of discouraging the Foundation from doing such things (no doubt a legacy of last year’s dustup over Media Viewer on dewiki), this would be a formidable task even to propose.

>It's hard for the community to take the lead when it comes to design

As any regular reader of T:MP knows ... It seems that at least once a month someone there proposes redesigning the Main Page and usually gets gently shot down (although often they really don’t seem to have an idea what would replace it, or if they do not a good one).
