On which part :-) Maybe the "not really into the visual
aesthetics". What I meant was not that we don't care, but more that we
will rather spend time on coding.

Look at it this way: Committers work on the code for free and I guess
that's also the case for many other OSS projects. Yet some still manage
to create visually pleasing websites & introduction material. I can only
(perhaps falsely?)  attribute this to the difference in focus/skills of
the team.

My point exactly. If someone on the Lift community feels strong enough
about this (and has the skills) it would move forward in the same way as
the code...alas it doesn't, so we need to force it by trying to
hire/manage someone external.
