was presented I do not know.
That wasn't so much a presenting of a new skin as presenting of a plan
to have a committee work on a new skin, and a demo. :)
The Communications Committee is actually nothing more
then a mailing
list. What is not send to there is unknown.
It's *people* on a mailing list, hopefully. ;)
The skin thing is being done by some sort of marketing subcommittee
which isn't very well known, either. Guillaume & Elian are working on it
I believe?
Really that's not a tech issue at this time, though, but more of an
ongoing process to see what we can and should do about unifying and
clarifying the visual identity of our sites -- that is, making it easier
to tell Wikimedia sites apart from non-Wikimedia sites while looking
good and having good usability/accessibility.
I don't know if they have screenshots etc up at this time.... ok:
