Jonatan was generous enough to donate the ownership of the domain to HaMakor under the condition that it will be used in accordance of HaMakor goals. As such, we consider ourselves to be stewreds (נאמנים) of this domain for the community. We (Hamakor board) believe that the domain will better serve the community as a general "portal" to Israeli Linux web resources, both Hebrew and otherwise (including IGLU, of course, but also the pengiun, whatsup, linux.israel.net, Haifux, TAUX, Perl/Python resources, various Linux forums, Hamakor and so forth), rather then a simple redirect to IGLU as it is now. Note that this is our opinion - not a decision, right now. If someone thinks that this is bad idea, please speak up. If someone has other ideas what to do with the domain *and is willing to implement them*, please speak up. In short, we're looking for feedback, but most important - for active help.
