Who are "we"? From your explanations I'm almost guessing that it is
some combination of GNOME and RedHat. Then would it be possible to add
some gaming to Mugshot? It would be pretty fun to play Gnometris
against someone over the Mugshot server. Or even better,
GnomeScrabble! Can you imagine how many grandmas would instantly
switch to GNOME if playing scrabble was as easy as Programs -> Games
-> GnomeScrabble??

Why is that useful?

I'm sometimes lurking in [EMAIL PROTECTED], does that
count? :) What about game servers and message boards?

Also, how do you plan to bridge language barriers? An English
community site is only good for native English speakers.
