Yep. Our site design is changing, and Fedora gets it's own upper level
nav. That gives a mini-home page for fedora, that positions it and sends
the user to
fedora.redhat.com.
OK, thats nice to know - when do we see a change?

Maybe, except I have zero direct control over
fedora.redhat.com, whereas
a traffic request let's me update
rh.com. Maybe instead of those sorts
of sites, a widget box that deep links into FAQs, Downloads, and
projects like the utility links in the upper right of
fedora.redhat.com.
Shouldn't direct control be changing slowly? Isn't the process opening
up?
Widget box sounds good, definitely

Yeah, whatever makes us most comfortable with pointing users there.
So, its just you/me/Jack here at the moment... But the above links are
what I'd personally recommend/vote for
Not to forget fedora.us, since that's really Extras, no? *grin*

Yeah, the links have space for text explaining them.
