If more reviewers agree, I'll change this back. I think Marty suggested a good compromise which is to remove the 'I want/need' and begin with the action verb. When I get a new draft, let me know if that option looks better to your eyes. > It would also be useful to have a page upfront somewhere that explains > exactly what OpenSolaris actually is, along with explanations of the various > distros available.

While that is true, we thought it was not 'less confusing' to new users. More to your point, and as a compromise, I started to create a table on the 'I want to learn more' landing page to describe aspects of the various releases. If you have time, could you comment on what should be added to the 'Releases' table? I appreciated any help you can give. Thanks again, Michelle > Cheers > > Andrew. > > > This message posted from opensolaris.org > _______________________________________________ > website-discuss mailing list > [email protected] > _______________________________________________ website-discuss mailing list [email protected]
