Open Stack

Hi again all,

Wanted to follow up on this thread.

The next step is for Lana to work with Piet from UX to find points where
users have difficulty with that page specifically. Any redesign of the
overall look-and-feel will come later.

The Foundation is working on a style guide for web pages. That'll come
closer to the PTG. Perhaps we can have a deeper discussion there.
