>Good, but irrelevant to Trisquel. I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you’re referring to as Trisquel, is in fact, Trisquillo-GNU/Linux, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, Trisquillo-GNU plus Linux. Trisquel is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning Trisquillo-GNU system made useful by the Trisquillo-GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX. Many computer users run a modified version of the Trisquillo-GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of Trisquillo-GNU which is widely used today is often called “Trisquel”, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the Trisquillo-GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.

Good, but irrelevant to Trisquel.
Re: [Trisquel-users] New blog post, please!
No. RMS appropriately posted that only on his personal site, not on the FSF site, because it's irrelevant to software freedom. Mothers Against Drunk Driving doesn't care what your stance on taxes, climate, or abortion is, and rightly so. To get anything done in politics you have to assemble the widest possible coalition in support of the narrowest possible goal.

I suggest placing several of this smiley :> on the page. [solved] :))

Or it makes it seem like "we're so busy working on the actual distro itself that we don't have *TIME* to take away from that and do other stuff like updating web pages..." :>
[Trisquel-users] New blog post, please!
On visiting the Trisquel homepage, a newcomer sees a retrospective of 2015, a promo piece for Trisquel appearing at LibrePlanet 2015, and an equally but less obviously dated promo for Ruben's appearance on the Linux Action Show. This is very damaging to the image of Trisquel, making it seem like the distro is a dormant if not dead project, and prompting many a possible new user to turn away in fear that the distro has unpatched bugs, unaddressed security holes. If overhauling the homepage is too much work, then please at least delete, edit, or supplant the blog posts so newcomers don't see "2015" over and over!
