Ok. I think we should be open to the two methods and see what
interviewed people prefers.

I would go for 
- - Adeos
- - Haver Ain't Very Exciting, Really
- - Livret du Libre
as elected list. But I must tell that I do not know much about all
these projects apart from their description on their main page.

now we'll have to do without :)

Hotspot is fine.  For the icon, as it would requires work on Savane,
it is not for today. But that's a good idea.

Sure. We will proceed as you proposed, it will avoid us some
annoyances.
