Hello all,

I uploaded an empty early draft (many things have changed, don't freak out!)
to show you what WoGue is about.
You can see it on
http://worldofgnome.org/404/woguedemo/<http://worldofgnome.org/404/woguedemo/index.php>

Ramkrishna I think there is not any kind of overlap between G. Journal and
WoGue. There are totally different things.
However I included a G Journal icon on Explorer tab. We can republish G
Journal news there by reference on gnomejournal.org.

*About licences*
We release under Free of any licence. But I afraid we have to change this,
because we have issues with the work of other people that we use, like
republishing things, or using Faenza Icons.

*About WoGue Goals*
Our primary goal is to bring Design Ideas for GNOME from Mailing Lists and
Blogs to one place, and give people that aren't on "Gnome", "Linux", "etc",
the opportunity to express their opinion, and to get a better product by
getting new ideas based on their wishes. Gnome is a community project after
all.
Secondary goal is to convince people that Gnome is the best thing out there
(I personally think so).
Last Goal is to make an enjoyable page for people to read.

*About WoGue Content*
It would be great if we could run a site only with the primary
goal. Unfortunately I doubt if we can collect so many stuff, so we need to
enrich the page a bit.

So we added the *Gnome Stories* area.
People can say what they like in Gnome (assuming that Gnome is OS), when
they tried it first time, and things like that...

We also have *Theming & Personalization*
We picked some of the best themes on our opinion and we represent them. Same
thing with Extensions.

*Interviews*
One of our major parts is to having interviews from Gnome Design Team (and
other people of course), about why they do that, what they are going to do
next, no technical analysis, simple things, that are enjoyable to read and
helpfull to learn and understand.

*Games*
Leaving out Web, 90% of software is Games. Games is an important factor for
an OS to be succeed. People are looking for games and they may choose to use
Gnome if they are happy with games on it.

*Commercial Software*
Well, I think we have to refer on this also. We use closed drivers, closed
hardware, Flash etc. We are going to show Games even if are commercials.
However we are not 100% sure about it.

Anyway I don't want to spend your time with a huge text, I just wanted to
explain what WoGue is about.
I hope you will not have any issues with our work, and we would really
appreciateif  you to CC us your Design Ideas and News from Mailing Lists and
your Blogs so we can publish them on our page. we can't follow all of them
:(


We don't ask your TM Logo, just a logo that is similar with it :) a
Besides, WoGue is not going to represent GNOME,  WoGue is trying to
advertise GNOME.

Friendly,

 - alex
