Thanks for your answer. Also to Paul and Dave!
I also appreciate that Denise dedicated her time to make a difference.
I'd usually love to hear her opinion!
But one feedback doesn't make data. After all, the points she mentions
are either well-known or irrelevant. Related issues -- like the target

Sorry Claus, I'm new to the list and was just adding to the discussion.
I'm a corporate webmaster and thought I had something valuable to

Just because one can point out some objections, doesn't mean it's worth
listening.
It's not easy to find a list of projects? What about visiting the
homepage and -- watch out, this is going to be complicated: -- clicking
the link called "projects"?
Also, in all these years I'm reading online disc

This is somewhat linked to the "what is GNOME" problem I'd guess. And,
would projects mean projects that use the gnome.org infrastructure for
hosting or, ones that constitute pretty

I agree we could do a better job, especially with the "who we are" and "what
we do" (we being GNOME). As well as Why.
The new www.gnome.org takes steps to address this, if you have a chance to
review the sitemap at

I met with Denise last week and she pointed out:
- It's very hard to tell what GNOME is from our web pages. If you don't
know when you land on gnome.org, you aren't likely to figure it out. An
"easy to understand desktop" doesn't really mean anything to non desktop/OS

Yeah, that would be really sweet if you could work on art type
things. I've been trying to recruit my brother but he doesn't
"get it" yet. If I can get him to start using Ubuntu I might have
some chance to get him to do some art.
So the more artists the better.
