Yes. I believe that open content adoption is not a question of
searching for what you want.
People not familiar with open content don't know what they want,
because its all new to them.  By and large open content is not going
to be what they are exposed to via radio or tv or cell phones or
friends (unless they are friends with me..but since I hate people
that's a doomed grassroots strategy).

There is a need for a showcase space that we can put in front of
Fedora users. Not a bandwidth sucking portal site with crazy amounts
of dynamic content and pointless interactivity. But something dynamic
enough so users can get a sense that there is a large pool of quality
content out there as they come back repeatedly to our site.
