I wonder why. It's not like anyone bothers to consider any feedback
any more. Take for example this thread:

http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_id=8986799&forum_id=12023

where a `redesigned' Ankur website was announced (by none other than
Jamil, in fact). Since I had strong reservations about this new
design, I pointed them out as politely as possible, along with
possible alternatives. As usual, there were no responses. However, a
few days later, without any further announcement whatsoever,
www.bengalinux.org began to be redirected to this new site. This was
more than a month ago, so it's unlikely to have been a temporary
experiment.

I, for one, certainly do not plan to waste any more of my time on
``Discussion about our future direction, projects, goals'' (which,
apparently, is the purpose of the core list).
