I love the new page much better than the earlier version but a link to 
http://www.redhat.com/software/rhelorfedora/ is missing. We really 
should get spend some good amount of effort in revamping 
fedoraproject.org content with the new cms system in place 
(http://fpserv.fedoraproject.org/) and dismantle fedora.redhat.com after 
setting up appropriate redirects. I think we need help with the content 
and organization for fedoraproject.org from within Red Hat for the 
initial design. Shouldnt be too much work but is extremely critical that 
we dont retain a annoyingly sparse fedora.redhat.com for too long.
