    More background info than anything, but we may be needing their
    services somewhat again to help nail some of the last issues.

    Yes. I'd like to propose that this design be used for the site. That
    is what the vote is for - I should have been clearer.

    Of course I'd ensure all copyright was assigned. My purpose in doing
    this was to firstly to support a worthwhile project in the best way I
    can (since I don't have the time or expertise to work on the code,
    what I can do is support those who do) and secondly because my
    business relies on Cayenne, then the strength of the project helps us.

    I'm happy for this bit of design and html either be put into the
    public domain or copyright assigned to Apache as appropriate.
