Sorry, but no. - There is no "website design competition". This means that John (like everyone else) is free to spend his time any way he pleases. His design is actually rather lightweight and cool (apart from minor column size problems and font sizes), so I see no reason to avoid showing it around. - It makes no sense to "keep stuff to yourself", if you're making it in the first place in order to give it to the FreeBSD project. I say "John keep the good work up" and I'm sure he has already contacted all the right people who are not working in Perforce towards the same goal :-)
