It's easy to say, this page is controversial, so let's get rid of it. However that starts the project down the road of being dominated by our internal politics rather than what actually makes sense from the end users perspective. That route spells doom for any product. You can always tell when a UI or product is the result of internal politics, whether it be the difficulty of plug-n-play hardware on Linux (no driver api) to how Microsoft is incapable of producing anything that isn't built on Windows. Gmail labs is another example of this.
It makes sense that if I go to bitcoin.org, I am educated about the system and what is available for it. It doesn't make any sense to have some stuff on the main site and other stuff on a wiki (which may get randomly vandalized and looks less professional), based on how "controversial" some developers find it. FWIW I am dead set against anyone randomly changing the website without a pull request and such changes should be reverted and resubmitted through the proper channels. I don't perceive much value in randomization or trying to make this page "fair". If anything, we need to pick somebody (one person) who has a strong focus on regular people and their needs, then just make them the sole committer to the website. That way disputes can be resolved by them making a decision, instead of ridiculous edit wars. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
