1) So you posted this image...

2) Everyone liked it...

3) Patch submitted.

So what happened between 2 and 3?  More precisely I ask, what do you think
_should_ have happened?  In my mind, step 3 comes next.  As a volunteer in
Fedora (even long before I had @redhat.com on my email) I just kept
working on stuff, pushing to get stuff in until someone said no.  When
they did, I found out why and fixed it.

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Websites/ShowUs was built with that in mind

There may be a hangup or two, but those are minor technical details when
compared to getting an active working site in order.
