[opensuse-wiki] [FPR] Home page content

Hi,
from what was said on the "3rd stage: modifications" thread I conclude
that everyone is happy with the _layout_ of the new home page (the
splash screen is another matter ;-)):
http://www.suse.de/~fs/opensuse/home.html
So I would suggest to close discussions on the layout of _this_ page and
start focusing on the content.
Rajko has already made an alternative proposal with considerably less
text - please see:

His comments:
> 1- "the world's most usable Linux" is mentioned twice in one
> paragraph. No need to mention that it is in any language considered
> problematic.
> 2- "The program provides anyone with free and easy
> access to the world's most usable Linux distribution"
> then later
> "We work together to create and distribute the world's most usable
> Linux" We either have it, or we are creating it.
> Can't be both.
>
> 3-"There are many ways you can participate in the openSUSE project.
> First you should get a copy of SUSE Linux and install it on your
> machine." Visitor can see two paragraphs right below that tell the
> same, so this is redundant.
>
> 4-"Here at openSUSE.org, you'll find a community of developers, end
> users, and other open source enthusiasts who all have the same goal
> in mind" "Other open source enthusiasts" might be business owners,
> but opensuse.org is non commercial site, and it is hard to imagine
> that any will appear.
>
> Of course, race with the time is guilty for some overzealous cuts,
> like missing Communicate link in the left pane. The link "More..."
> will lead to "How to Participate" page.
