The site also seems very commercial / corporate in its look and feel for a community distro, yes it has a big section on community but that doesn't really show the community.
That one you have to explain to me. Why does the community section not "really" show the community?
Yeah, i struggled to put this into words well, maybe its the engineer in me seeing it as a professionally made page full of flashy marketing material targeting managers and execs rather then end users or atleast not traditional Linux users and maybe thats not a bad thing seen as most traditional Linux users probably know what openSUSE is.
Okay, actually I think this is a good thing and it's what we were aiming at :-)
Having said all this i thought i'd go have a look at the community to see what they do and maybe steal some ideas. The fedora website seems like a better example of what is being aimed forhttps://getfedora.org The first screen you see is very marketing oriented but by the time you scroll down the height of the screen you hit all the info users would be after.
Whom do you mean with "users"? I guess you mean people that already participate in our community? Those are very secondary for this page. We rather want to do one thing (present the distro and the community to people who don't know it yet) and one thing well instead of having another mash up like we have right now.
Yeah i don't think there needs to be much here, would just be nice if there was a link to "Documentation" i.e. wiki and the forums somewhere near the top of the page, i'm guessing theres a fair number of people that go to this page looking for those two things.
Currently the designated place for this is the footer. Might be we can beef up the descriptions in the community sections to include those. We have to think about this...
