But this is not the correct mailinglist to discuss this topic
This is opensuse@opensuse.org - openSUSE's support mailinglist. This is not a support topic
Please relocate this discussion to opensuse-project@opensuse.org (if you wish to discuss the Project's direction, Board's decisions and such) or opensuse-web@opensuse.org (if you want to actually discuss the openSUSE website)
And this has been another sad epitaph to the growth of SuSE. The splintering of the community into a myriad of different lists that no one with a day job could ever have the time to monitor allowing much of what takes place with opensuse to go on in isolation, without the benefit of the broader community's input. I an sense it is evidence of being a victim of your own success... but something was definitely lost along the way.
It is also curious that the mere mention of the board in one or two of a 20 post thread would reap a swift ushering away from a broader community discussion to an obscure and comparatively unsubscribed to list fragment.
The idea of a better home page is welcomed. There are a lot of good examples out there to follow -- there are even more examples of those so poorly done they are self-defeating. Here's to hoping any change drinks deeply from the first category of examples...
