Not to discount this discussion, but we have a lot of discussion,
what we need it more work done. That usually why things are the way
things are: nobody's done the work. Its not too often that people
want things in some fucked up way.

I thought I'd chip in on this discussion as a low-level user,
because the discussion had drifted away into technical discussions
about crashes on various platforms.Where I live there is a community-led cinema starting up, and in
order to function they've split up organisation into different
groups. There is the planning group, the bar staff group, the
marketing group, etc. Perhaps the PD community could do something
similar, and by doing a little bit of organisation make these big
jobs into something more manageable. Personally, I don't think I
know enough about PD to take on the job of re-editing the homepage
- my point was that PD could present a friendlier face to the
world. What that face should look like has to be decided by more
than one person.Pete

For instance, the website puredata.info could use some sprucing up. I don't have any CMS axe to grind, but it would be nice if the front page was less technobabble and more advertisement for PD.
well, there seems to be some misunderstanding about open source
projects.there is no army of HTML designers ready to do this redesign. pretty much everything associated with pd was done because somebody gave their time to do it.
so, *you* could do it [prolly involves work], but there's no one else who's going to pick it up. it's not like apple [ipod-land], where people are paid to do this kinda work. it's a community based
project- uneven and irregular [like communities are].-- \js [ http://or8.net/~johns/ ]

If you are not part of the solution, you are part of the problem.
