    Suggestion to rearrange forums

    I would like to suggest that the NEWS forun be moved back to the top of the forum list where it had been, an that further the General Support forum be moved significantly down the list, perhaps below Networking or even Customizing and Remastering. My reasoning is the since General was moved to the top of the list it has seem to become a "catch all" category, people are asking quetions that seem to imply they have not even looked at the list of Forums. If General was down lower people might be more inclined to sort their questions into the proper forums and might even realize that the other forums are there and already have the answers if they look. (yea, maybe that's expecting a lot.) A few other thoughts: move the Lounge last, move Klik up a bit so Games are next to the lounge. Move Knoppix DVD and Other Live CDs so they are next to each other (just seems like a logical grouping).

    i must say that this is usually a good idea... because these two can interact with each other sometimes...

    Moving General down I think is a good idea also. In the linuxquestions.org site, the General section is almost at the bottom. People have to scroll by the others that might fit what they need to post or even enter one with the same question.

    hmm, I'm starting to wonder if it wouldn't be a good idea to have a separate section for burning and booting since there seems to be quite a lot of questions about this. As it is, they all go to General Support, which perhaps they belong to. It could even be the top section. Any thoughts about this?

    Not exactly on arrangement, more just a minor thing on general layout ...

    Iv'e noticed on multi-page threads that the 'topic' heading appears to be at the top ofthe first page. And at the bottom on subsequent pages.

    It would help to have it on the top for all the following pages as well. It would save on scrolling when coming in on a following page, especially when it's long.

    Possibly the page number could be included in that heading field as well.

    I think it's quite a well layed out site though other wise
