I could answer that question from a design perspective. However, the
Board doesn't make technical or design decisions, so I don't think
that would be appropriate.

What I can say is that I'm keen to talk with our Advisory Board
members about what they want from GNOME, and to make sure that those
conversations are fed into our development activities. This is
important in order to ensure that Ad Board members feel that their
membership is valuable, and to ensure that the project is responsive
to the needs of our supporters. As a designer on the project, I think
that I'm in a good position to make sure that this happens.
