I don't care for "Find Out". It does not cleary communicate the purpose of the site. "Mageia FInd Out" reads to me like brokewn English saying "Mageia is looking for out" and makes me wonder what "out" is and why is Mageia looking for it. It does not clearly speak to software/applications. I assume you are using "find out" in the sense of "discover" or "explore", but it's not a phrase that is clear to me. Some suggetsion for your consideration (yes, they are very dull, but descriptive): Mageia Application Database/Discovery/Foundry Mageia Application Warehouse/Mall/Store/Shop Mageia - Explore Applications Mageia - World of Applications Here's my take on an edit of the intro: Welcome to Mageia Application Discovery! Here, you can search for application software to use on your Mageia system, then download and install it with just a click. Browse by name, category or specific filename*. To help you decide. examine the screenshots and user reviews and recommendations. Explore applications in the testing repository to participate in the devopment process. Provide your feedback to help others. Suggest new applications for inclusion in Mageia. Explore and enjoy yourself! I woud not use words like "infos" or "app" or "soft" and would avoid abbreviations, shorthand and jargon. Overall, I like the concept and the interface. Great work! * I suggest this feature as a way to help the user figure out "What provides <filename>?" That is often not an easy task as package naming conventions are often obtuse and confusing. -- Hoyt
