Do you think that would > improve it for you? Probably wouldn't hurt, but I usually get annoyed by slideshows before I notice if there is a pause button or not. More of a personal preference for static pages I guess, lots of people seem to like them though, certainly I find them on lots of web sites. > > > In page 1 of the content, I think it is reaching a bit to > > describe fedora with the word "stable".

There are messages like this: http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/users/2008-February/022721.html from time to time all through the fedora user's archives. I just found that example in about 10 seconds of searching. The concept of "stable" is constantly ridiculed in the user list when someone has the audacity to complain about things changing, so it just seemed a weird word to find in the fedoraproject front page. I think the word "stable" would be better off replaced with something like "cutting edge" in that first slide. > > ~m > > -- websites mailing list websites@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/websites
