Yes I knew about this mockup: you blogged about it. I actually complain the 
image is using a mockup from you in my first message.

Regarding you telling me your main intent:
You told me the whole point of this mockup was to make a nice clean interface 
app to demo in the desktop on the screenshot section of the release 
anouncement. You then added you could just show the demo qml app but that 
would be "cheating too much".

In the end, you did not put it in the screenshot section but in a smaller 
image. And this image happens to be the most widespread image of the 
announcement since anyone sharing the announcement on FB or G+ ends up using 
it, and it's been used in many blog posts as well.

Anyway, let's move on. I understand the image is not going to be replaced. I 
hope I did at least make a point that those kind of montages are too far away 
from reality for me.
