Hi Louis,
I'd like to call a closure to debates and get on with life :-)
Is there an up-to-date list of candidates?
There are no candidates anymore, they have been eliminated. The version
that I send to you, maintained by Ivan, is what we are working on
together... though it has been only Ivan who has been maintaining the HTML
so far.

OK, and thus the source of my latest question. Where is the gull that
will supposedly have target bubbles overhead?
I'm back at ...
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Website/Proposals
and don't see anything like a full-sized gull on any of the mockup pages?
Might I suggest the following things so we can actually move forward this...
1. setting up an area in tryouts and copy Ivan's current creation there.
( I would be happy to do this over the weekend, but ideally Ivan should
also have access and I don't know if he does).
2. Given the mockup of the home page (your link here), could we come up
with actual html templates for the secondary pages? (I haven't even
looked at the HTML myself so I'm not a good judge of this...but I think
you get my meaning.)
3. Given that people seem to like the idea of the gull (where is s/he on
the mockup?) could we spend some time putting on the new mockup? Or were
these bubbles supposed to be added to our current design? I'm pretty
confused about this at this point.
and....see below
The mail I sent was only to help him with his problem of footers.
Additionally there is a page with content, which is 'developed' separately.
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Website/Content/
(but after I started this initiative sadly no-one took time to edit the
text and repair mistakes. Maintaining a changing content in a changing
HTML/CSS design is time consuming, that is why the two are still
separated)
Again the idea is to have:
I want to learn more about OpenOffice.org
linking to: http://www.openoffice.org/learnmore/ (alternatively: /why/ )
I want to get OpenOffice.org (alt: I want to download OpenOffice.org )
linking to: http://www.openoffice.org/get/ (alternatively: /download/)
I need help with my OpenOffice.org
linking to: http://www.openoffice.org/help/ (alt: /support/)
I want to do more with my OpenOffice.org
linking to: http://www.openoffice.org/more/ (alt: /extend/)
I want to participate in OpenOffice.org
linking to: http://www.openoffice.org/particpate/
Proposed content is in the wiki.
ok, again hmmmm.... might you tell us exactly where? There are quite a
number of pages relating to this now.
The three links (search, login, and native lang) have been proposed as
tabs, but we can postpone it, linking them to the traditional pages:
http://www.openoffice.org/servlets/Search
http://projects.openoffice.org/native-lang.html
http://www.openoffice.org/servlets/StartPage (display logout there when
logged in)
Anyhow, the idea is that these will be replaced by javascript tabs,
allowing quick access. If we encapsulate these links in a div, we can
replace the content by including a js file later.
Let's see whether we can Ivan's design online this weekend?
???? what do you mean here?
I will repost Ivan's list with issues to resolve on this list (earlier
posted by Ivan on the marketing list)
What is the status of the one click download button Sun is working on?

These seem to me like good solutions:
http://www.themaninblue.com/experiment/footerStickAlt/good_example_short.htm
Requires all content, but the footer content to be encapsulated by a
'nonfooter' div, but uses no JS, nor hacks with background images.
http://matthewjamestaylor.com/blog/bottom-footer-demo.htm
Requires a fixed height footer.
Both links are from this excellent starting point for solving CSS
problems: http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=FooterInfo
