Thanks for the update. |

One question that your thorough response didn't answer (assuming that I |
| 11 |
didn't miss it) is if you have plans to improve the site's navigation? |
| 12 |
My understanding during the original redesign contest was that the |
| 13 |
majority of the complaints we received about our site from users was the |
| 14 |
difficulty involved in finding things. |

In any event, I think we need to remove the flying saucer guy. When |
| 17 |
drobbins left and turned over the Gentoo IP to us, one thing that he |
| 18 |
kept was the flying saucer guy. I believe that he was allowing us to |
| 19 |
use it while we got the redesign put together, but since that's dead it |
| 20 |
seems unfair to hold on to that flying saucer guy indefinitely. |
