Not my intention of course.

koha.org has always been managed and implemented by the Website owner. In
the past, that was Katipo, but when they sold their Koha assets to LibLime,
we inherited that responsibility and have done our best to accommodate the
needs of the community and be excellent stewards of the website.

As far as providing you access to edit the CSS files directly, there's
unfortunately no way to do that securely for all users with Plone, but you
should be able to test changes with local CSS in your browser and we're
happy to make adjustments to the site if you have some suggested
improvements.

Cheers,

Josh
