I doubt the hourly build would ever make it feel longer than it is already. :D I displayed the top three items in my mock-up, but I'm a bit partial to five items. I'll leave that decision up to proper designers and UI experts. Looking around a bit more, here are the three groupings I like. OTOH, another option is to pull them into one scrolling column. The main reason I don't like that is steady-state content such as FWN should go up and stay up for the week, with the past few weeks visible. If we combined it into one scrolling column, it would scroll off in under two hours. --- "Fedora Weekly News" http://fedora-tchung.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default ---- "Red Hat Magazine/Dev Fu/Truth Happens" or "Red Hat Magazine" http://www.redhatmagazine.com/category/fedora/feed http://developer.redhatmagazine.com/category/fedora/feed http://truthhappens.redhatmagazine.com/feed --- "Fedora Announcements" rss://fedora-announce-list@xxxxxxxxxx (?) http://news.fedoraproject.org/feed --- - Karsten -- Karsten Wade, Developer Community Mgr.
