That's a very legitimate point, Calum. I guess the root of the problems is that .org provides a lot of information on a single, rather daunting page. .com provides a lot of info well, but has a nice tree-style navigation layout that starts with a simple home/root page. Maybe we just need to get the .org site to follow those good design principles a little more. I know that even for me, an OpenSolaris user since the early days of the project, the .org site can be a little thick when it comes to finding what I need. cheers, Blake
