Wish I was not a +1 here. But, alas, I am. www.opensuse.org is rather uninformative. It was reworked a bit back, so the interface is a bit more modern. But the content really gives the wrong impression. Or, actually, no impression at all... All is says is Tumbleweed and Leap. What are those? Not a mention that it is a Linux distribution. And why it is such a great one. I think the current www.opensuse.org is what one should get to when clicking that you would like to try that great thing that has been presented. I am not an artistic guy (said with a bit of real sadness). But I think there must be some in the community that are artistic and who could contribute to a nicer presentation. And www.opensuse.org should have a bit of eye candy. But in a good way. Whatever that is. I think the connections to all the other sites related to openSUSE should be more prominent at the start. It should show that openSUSE is active and there is lots to get involved with. There is a point at which it can become too much. But I think the current level of information has gone too far the other way: Leap and Tumbleweed. No explanation of what that's about. Obviously if you already know about openSUSE and are just wanting access to the distribution, it's fine. But it hardly sells openSUSE. Maybe in a section above the Leap/Tumbleweed choices section that one sees immediately, in a way similar to the openSUSE Tools section below, there should be a section that tells about what openSUSE is and why it is good. That is what one sees immediately. The current site continues below that. More people need to know how great openSUSE is! -- Roger Oberholtzer -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
