After some coffee, I should add some more explanation. Fedora has many times more users than developers, and the start page should primarily appeal to that wider audience. Most of the content on the planet — even that which is properly Fedora-related — is pretty highly tilted towards the geekier contributor side. There's nothing wrong with that, but it can be overwhelming. So, the goal with the Magazine is to be more user-focused (although there's still a lot of contributor-focused stuff mixed in as well; we're still working on the balance). If you're deeply involved and want the firehose, http://planet.fedoraproject.org is there. If *you'd* like to contribute user-focused content (even reposting from your blog, or whatever), see <https://ask.fedoraproject.org/en/question/52782/how-do-i-contribute-to-fedora-magazine/?answer=52786#post-id-52786> There's also value in having users aware of the wider community and drawing them in, so, again... we're working out the balance, and everyone's help figuring that out is welcome. -- Matthew Miller <mattdm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Fedora Project Leader -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
