Hi, I must recognize that I like the new site ;) Though frankly I cannot say much about its performance with the different groups of people it is targeted to. Perhaps we could get some feedback from tests with teachers, random parents, kids, journalists, etc? Check out how well this people can get to know what sugar is, etc?
Something I really love is Dongyun Lee's illustrations, they are very beautiful. I would like to see some more graphical stories about different aspects of learning with Sugar, from different authors with very different styles, that would get added to the right side of other pages, and perhaps also aggregated from one single page. And perhaps one day published on a paper book, even if I'm not a big fan of killing trees ;) About the video, it's a pity that the free-form view in the home view is featured there, as users haven't liked it much (we held a votation) and we were planning to remove it. AFAIK this was an unilateral decision from NN that never was explained properly. Any chance to get that changed? Perhaps could help to the debate about this site favouring "stylish-ness" over functionality to point out to one nice example of what a "functional project site" may be in today's open source circles: http://do.davebsd.com/ Thanks all for your hard work and your frank opinions, I'm really thrilled to see so much effort put towards showing off what Sugar is intended to become.
