This is the first I've seen of the site. A community news site for fedora is a great idea.
http://fedoranews.org/colin/fnu/week1.shtml is "more correct". I'll get an index.shtml up soon enough.
I would love to see a Slash/GnomeDesktop.org-style site with news updates and reader replies. Maybe even a simple movable-type weblog would suffice for now.
I think you've got to speak to Thomas Chung about this, as I don't own the site :)
But most summaries/news updates don't have a feedback feature (gnome summaries, debian weekly news, openoffice.org updates).
While technically, this is mostly redundant when used in tandem with other tools (mailing list in particular), it does a long way to letting others learn about and join the community. Lots of people will read a website before they'll subscribe to a mailing list.
Yup. Hence the summaries.
