Hi,
at news.opensuse.org the leftbar lists categories above calendar. So on many
screens the calendar section with the events is below the fold.
I think exchanging the two would be useful for the mayority of visitors of
news.opensuse.org. Yes, I think showing the calendar/events more prominent is
more important as the categories.
Are there more people out there sharing my opinion?

Hi,
a short note on the status of the new skin for the wiki:
- the new skin is currently tested on staging. Staging has some real
data from the wiki (half a year old), so we can test the skin in
almost real life. This has revealed some minor CSS/Template issues I
am currently fixing
(Staging is our internal testing platform and not available from the
outside)
- the use of the new rss feed extension on the home page (which fetches
the RSS data from news.opensuse.org) has revealed a serious issue with
my template: the right navigation bar on the home page does not get
parsed by the wiki - so wiki syntax including extension stuff will not
work here. I have to admit that I haven't found a solution, yet (apart
from a dirty hack I do not really want to implement). Anybody out
there with in-depth knowledge of MediaWiki templating and wiki parsing
functions?
Planned steps:
Once the template issue has been resolved, we are almost ready to go
online. The last step will be to provide "ready to paste" new home
pages on en.test.opensuse.org. Once the new skin is on production,
these new starting pages will have to be transferred via cut & paste to
production. Details on this procedure will follow in time.

Just a suggestion, http://www.opensuse.org/ got a new layout, which
looks a lot nicer than the old one, and the Get It link there looks
very nice and professional, but shouldn't the wiki site get a new
layout as well? It would be more inviting. I don't know about you
guys, but I always love to see a new layout or design on one of my
favorite sites.
Maybe I'm wrong and it seems nice and new enough? I'm open to any
comments about this. It wouldn't serve much more than a cosmetic
purpose, but it still may be time for an upgrade.
