I think the start page has evolved nicely. This is not the first time
I've heard it reported as being a good conduit to bring people to
various Fedora Project resources.

It's also one of the tools that the upcoming Fedora community action
and impact person would probably want to review and likely use; if I
were in that position, I would want to really see what use it had,
build some metrics, and really consider what to do with it over the
longer term. Seems like it might be a good idea to leave it enabled
until that person can come have a more full discussion with the Council?
