Redesign of the www.rockbox.org front page
Zardoz:
I agree with Godeater here. I've referred many people to the site and most complain that they 'don't know what to do'. That's on them. I don't see how friendliness and comprehensiveness are mutually exclusive. Why not include all, some supposedly esoteric, links on the front page? I mean the major sections not the individual links obviously. Equal prominence to all
GodEater:
Sounds to me like you're not agreeing with me at all - I'm arguing for *less* stuff on the front page - not more.

It's put her off doing any of her own investigation into Rockbox as a product because there's too much technical information on there that has no value to her at all.

This is the same response my girlfriend had too. She did not know, nor care, what any of the development information on the frontpage was saying. For her it was a distraction to the point where she struggled to find out how to get RBUtil downloaded and running (but this was before the download installer button).

I'll add another example of a non-technical user being pointed to rockbox.org and having no idea where to go from there into the mix.

Less is best, of course. You misunderstood me....
