Hi I used the fedora website today and found it difficult to locate the info I wanted, so am reporting here in case it is useful for designers. My use of "Suggestion" here, is just a tag for clarity. I hope it sounds polite. My use case is someone with only a web-browser trying to answer this question: Before I choose to install Fedora, what packages (all) are available? This seems a reasonable and essential question for a package-based distribution. Here is my experience searching for the answer. I followed these links in this order: http://fedoraproject.org/en/ http://fedoraproject.org/en/get-help http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FAQ http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs Answer not found yet. Apparently this is not a FAQ. Backtrack and follow links again: http://fedoraproject.org/en/ http://fedoraproject.org/en/get-help irc://irc.freenode.org/#fedora #fedora/topic links to https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_Channel_FAQ That page says: "Please use the packages Fedora provides". If only it linked to what they are! So I still wonder where to discover that, and continue. I ask on IRC #fedora, they suggest here: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/acls/list/a* Hooray! This answers my question. Suggestion #1: This Q&A could be in the FAQ http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FAQ Suggestion #2: "Please use the packages Fedora provides" could link there. So that could be the end of this report, but there's more if you want it, because IRC #fedora also mention this page: https://apps.fedoraproject.org/ A good-looking and useful page. Suggestion #3: That page could be discoverable somehow from http://fedoraproject.org/en/ So I tried to answer my question from there. I selected "Packages". Clicking of the resulting large "Packages", did nothing ... eventually due to the odd layout I noticed to click the "Check it out" button. That could be clearer if it was underneath. Suggestion #4: The "Check it out" script could be run by clicking on large "Packages". The "Check it out button" took me to: https://apps.fedoraproject.org/packages/ To any user except one who wants to enter one known name of a package into a search box, the design of that page is *brutal*. Suggestion #5: A "Browse all packages" button there could link to the answer to my question. Suggestion #6: The footer links there are weird, especially the ones for RHEL. -- websites mailing list websites@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/websites
