We have to convince people to use the new software map. This would help
immensely. How long are we looking at before having it up on the current
site? Can anyone help port data or anything?

Perhaps an example of what we need on the site - not how we'd do it. ;)

I'm holding off on the work I was doing for the Nautilus site now that the
main web stuff has picked up. This is more important. I'm less interested in
doing a Nautilus site now than an integrated GNOME eyecandy site; at some
stage I'll get back to that code and bring it up to speed with the GNOME
site when it goes live.

More stuff for d.g.o. Not sure what people feel like with wikis on the site.
