Cool.


BTW, I find the new site much, much better. For developers, it is much 
better to find interesting stuff. I found tons of stuff that I didn't know 
it even existed. So far, I like the experiment in navigation. It's like 
what everybody talks about with envisioning the flat filesystem, only 
applied to a website.
As someone interested in the project, the new website gives me the feeling 
that Haiku is much more alive. I can find out interesting insights directly 
from the developers. I can learn about their progress. Additionally, there 
are articles about ideas. For example, I liked the one called "Sorting 
Chute" very much.
As a contributor, I feel much more empowered. I can add content to my 
personal blog, err articles, I can correct small errors on our website 
right when I see them. This is all so much better then before. To me, it 
looks like with the new site, we can move forward much more quickly, 
without losing energy unnecessarily. Of course, this doesn't mean that more 
important articles/announcements should not be discussed. With the new 
site, there needs to be more responsibility of what one publishes.

Waldemar did indeed talk much more and tried to discuss things before. Back 
then it didn't feel like much was moving. Contrary to now. :-)
