Tim,

I agree with your comments. In addition (and/or possibly compound):

a) The opensolaris.org homepage is just too verbose - more links to 
stuff are needed, rather than the stuff itself. This applies to the News 
and Blogs sections. The blogs section on OpenSolaris.com is much better
b) News items indeed must be handled differently - the paragraph summary 
for each is unnecessary. You don't want negative crud on your homepage - 
people are paid to fabricate negative stuff that should be dispensed 
with courtesy of the facilities provided by the smallest room in the 
house. Imagine how web-based businesses would fare if they put negative 
comments on their homepage - another dot.Bomb suicide in the making... 
Your point about authoritative corrections to news BS is great, but 
sadly would involve an extra salary - the engineers are overworked 
already :-(
c) I would prefer to see real opensolaris.org news in the News section - 
stuff like forthcoming flag days/releases - stuff to look _forward_ to
d) The stuff in the News section relates to OpenSolaris, not 
opensolaris; so really should be a link somewhere on OpenSolaris.com; 
rather than opensolaris.org. But try to find anything not upbeat on 
OpenSolaris.com? "Get - Share - Learn"'n'stuff.....

Regards... Sean.
