Any update on this?  The staging instance is open for you or anyone else
interested to login and test changes

I tried logging in to the staging instance here are the initial issues -

1) The links of Login in and "people, badges" overlap with each other.
2) I tried logging in with open id and it failed logging in with this error
"Server denied check_authentication".

I will try the other options also and bring on more inputs.

Same for me. The links above the button "Ask a question" are overlapped.
I checked it on Chromium Browser and Firefox.

This is a known issue with the current theme.   What we need is someone
with knowledge on CSS to help fix such problems and design a Fedora
theme that matches fedoraproject.org

I am trying to do that - will take some amount of time. Will send more
updates with screenshots. Also, the mascot and logo is still left (I
promised to deliver that sometime back) I am waiting for OCAL infra to
be up so I can get some more ideas. In the meantime, send ideas for
the same. I have thought for something like this [1] or [2] but with a
fedora logo - Its a cliché but still would look cool on a tee (if we
plan to have one someday) :)

NIcu's remix at  [1] is a suitable candidate too :) (i don't know if
its been used somewhere officially)

Should be fixed in the latest update.   Take a look and confirm

Its fixed.

Also, can we put up a temporary logo [1] (the old one) before a final
one is rolled out? (I have some new potential contributors willing to
share their efforts on list - dunno when they'll do it though)

I had tried it earlier. This one is too big. Check out the proper size
in askbot.org

The logo looks good :). I would like to suggest some changes. Instead of
<fedora-logo>Ask?

I'd prefer

Ask<fedora-logo>

Anyway, that's only a suggestion.

Thanks
