The bottom line is that the core Koha development community expressed dissatisfaction with all of the submitted designs, and we didn't plan for a scenerio where no-one liked any of them; for that reason, I hesitated to publish the results of our voting process.
We're still planning to proceed with Plone, but we've had other priorities (like the release of Koha 3.0) that have prevented us from focusing our attention on what to do with the koha.org Plone migration. Some have suggested we switch to Plone and just use the standard Plone template; others have suggested we pick one of the submitted designs even though we didn't like them, just to move things forward; others have suggested we run another contest or perhaps just select someone to pay to design a koha.org site that the community is happy with. So there are lots of ideas, but I think most of us have been too busy to execute them. So Koha community, how shall we proceed?
