| Hi Allan!
The concept of the release cycle infographic is really really good. For someone like me, who is very new to GNOME and very minimally technically-versed, just by glancing at the graphic already gives me a clear idea what happens within a release cycle vis-a-vis the timeline and the relative magnitude of the different work involved. It is a good starting point and I can imagine it will make it a lot easier for me to put the bits and pieces I pick up along the way, in the right places!
Also, I did suggest putting in a visual timeline of some sort in the FY2015 annual report for readers to see GNOME’s year in a glance; by adding details specific to 2015 like the dates of the conferences/events/hackfests, the cities where they took place and also the release numbers, I can totally see that “A Year in GNOME” incorporated into this annual report!
Best, Adelia

Other than the bottom part (specifically the "}", the arrows and the background of some of the distributors' logos), I'm not sure what else you could consider in need of work there. Do you have specific items that bug you?
What bugs me...? It's generally pretty rough visually. It's missing some key information, like which activities the engagement team does. Some things were just thrown together to see if it worked (like the logos). I'm going to keep saying this: I'm not a visual designer! :)
Otherwise I think we could roll with that and call it a day…
I'm inclined to do the same, but we can put a note saying that we are looking for people to improve it. We can also file a bug under engagement as a feature request.. what do people think?
I'd be a little embarrassed to have it out there in its current form, to be honest. It would be great if we could ask a visual or graphic designer to have a look.
