www.redhat.com ?

Shouldn't the links be kept at the fedora.redhat.com site? And the new
URL that points there should be used, rather than keeping a few links
sitting on www.redhat.com itself ?

Fedora Legacy - www.fedoralegacy.org
Fedora Unofficial FAQ - www.fedorafaq.org *
FedoraNEWS.ORG - www.fedoranews.org
FedoraForums - www.fedoraforums.org

* - should we start taking the effort to getting the Fedora Docs project
to organise the FAQ, i.e. we consolidate it to our main site at
fedora.redhat.com ? Gives us better stature, works better for the
project in general, and we'll have to do it eventually (even if its a
few years down the line) as newbies will want to know where to get
information ASAP - remember, throughout the install, they see links to
"fedora.redhat.com" (or its new equivalent)

Also, from a usability standpoint, a newbie might go, "what's a FAQ?".
So we should try "Frequently Asked Questions" as a link on the main site
(rather than unofficial FAQ)...
