If we're concerned about new users finding Fedora and thinking they would like to use our distro, pointing them to our /project/ mission statement is entirely wrong. Pointing them to the /product/ page for a Desktop spin, or KDE spin, or Education spin is entirely right. If we're talking about contributors, then the product page isn't quite for them. The project page is more about why we are doing these things, why we are producing the various products and what purpose the entire thing serves. Simply put, the Project page should not be the landing page for users. -- Jesse Keating Fedora -- Freedom² is a feature! identi.ca: http://identi.ca/jkeating
