Re: Keep the elementaryos.org updated

 

Hi fabian,

I know that you guys are working on the new webpage, but i was talking
about the current one available. Something needs to be happening more often
on it.
When it comes to news section.. I know Cassidy is busy but why not involve
someone more??
Why not involve this guy who has this blog  *elementary*luna.*blogspot*.com/ ?
He writes very often about things which is happening in luna. Maybe he
could contribute or someone else :))

Cheerz! ;)
