Hi all One thing that might be very good to have is if we develop a version of these pages for the actualy Gibon release. We build these pages all the way up to the actual release then we don't really provide a huge amount of information about what is in the product and what it looks like for new or returning users.
I'd be interested to get your opinions on what would be the most useful thing to show and the best place to present information for the following audiences TYPE 1 a) new to Linux b) heard of ubuntu but not ready/capable of downloading c) wants reassurance that it is a familiar environment TYPE 2 a) familiar with linux and/or ubuntu b) wants to know what's new and cool in latest release Screen Cast is one option but I would love to hear other suggestions. Key is we need to make it really easy to get to and eliminate any FUD so that people will make the next step. This might even include how to burn an image on to a CD; remove anything and everything that provides a barrier to adoption. thoughts?
