A couple of comments: o CSS - my CSS skills are weak, to say the least. I'll have trouble implementing some of these ideas by myself. o App icons - I can extract the icons from /usr/share/icons when I parse rpms. This is probably a lot better than having you or someone else create an icon for each app. It might be a little tricky to pick the 'right' icon, though. o 'Download' should probably be 'Install' throughout. Or maybe there's a better 'normal user' word for 'I want this app on my computer'? o User ratings on the details page - I haven't quite figured this out, but my general idea was that user ratings would be more along the lines of free-form text. Like "I have used this application to 'Write reports___'", instead of per-category. OTOH, maybe the traditional categories and ratings could be combined somehow. -RN -- Robin Norwood Red Hat, Inc.
