review site roles

Change process

Existing protocol: minor changes, go ahead; new pages / sections require discussion / enable Moderation Queue (see next meeting minutes)

Nope, fix it green. New input from VisCom. To have more consistent corporate identity remove the blue mast head and replace by white (grey, whatever - up to discretion of WebCom). Maintain greenish style throughout site.
