We need to figure out whether we want to design a new cover page for each cycle, or just update the same one each time. My personal opinion and original vision was to have a new cover each time, to differentiate the separate books, keep the style updated as the Ubuntu theme and branding develops and it also gives us something fresh to show off each time.
When people see a new cover, they associate it with something new, a new book. If we just update the old one and keep using it, we'll lose that excitement - people won't know whether it's the same old book, a new book, or a new edition. Editions should keep the same cover because they're just revisions to the same book. Bearing in mind that aubergine is for commercial and orange is for community, I feel we should have something bolder and more prominent - like this: http://www.amazon.com/Official-Ubuntu-Book-Benjamin-Mako/dp/0137081308/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1283243654&sr=8-4 While that uses aubergine, we can use Ubuntu orange as the most prominent colour.
