Well, I've had some freebsd evangelists beat me up a little bit about our web pages yesterday, and since they made some good points I thought I'd share them with y'all, the docs & web team. :-) First point is that there's no "Contacting Us" page at the very top. People don't want to wade through reams of documentation when all they want to know is who to contact over some commercial item, or where to send questions, or whatever. I realize that this information is all available elsewhere, but what they're looking for (I think) is something more like: Contacting The FreeBSD Project: ------------------------------- Commercial vendor contacts & PR: Jordan Hubbard <jkh@FreeBSD.org> General Questions: questions@FreeBSD.org Security Problems: security-officer@FreeBSD.org Project Developers: committers@FreeBSD.org Technical Discussion: hackers@FreeBSD.org User Registration (receive a free newsletter and general announcements pertaining ONLY to FreeBSD - no spam!): http://www.freebsd.org/registration.html <probably more I'm forgetting> This would basically be a quick glossary for finding people and mailing lists when you don't know who to turn to. And yes, that registration page doesn't exist yet but this is another top priority for us since something else the evangelists yelled about was us not trying to get a better feel for our demographics so that ISVs/corporate america could feel more comfortable about FreeBSD as a viable OS. There was also talk of a security page, which I've asked Guido about and can only hope that he'll address sometime soon. :) I think that's also of great importance. Comments? Jordan
