Development platform What about inserting here a page about Innovation & Roadmap... GNOME shaping its future. Would it make sense to introduce here planned/unstable developments even if they are not official and perhaps not even strictly GNOME (but GNOME-compatible?). I'm thinking specially in the 3D desktop stuff (impressive eye-candy showcasing the power of the free desktop). There is also the battle against the clock (optimizing miliseconds) and energy consumption (more battery life). What else? Perhaps mentioning the 10X10 and Topaz would make sense here as well. > > 9.

It is a good reference to start with and could inspire an ulterior walk through the GNOME desktop in a descriptive way: panels, applications, preferences, administration...

Now we should define how a page of the tour looks like. Are we talking about highly graphic slides with no scroll like a presentation or a Flash thing, or should we go for more explanatory pages with scroll (if needed) where text paragraphs are combined with screenshots and other types of illustrations? > > The GNOME stars need to be in this tour - who are they? > > > > It's also an opportunity to bring out the best slogans we have created - > > which are they?
