One important thing is that if we go around following everything everybody else says
we become a follower in our field.

I have had numerous people tell me what to do in the code, what to name things, what to eat for breakfast.
Plain and simple, I will choose what to put on our website, when to put it there and what it says.

You are welcome to your own opinion.  I have no problem with it.  If you say something I like we may
even listen.  Feel free to comment on anything else you find when browsing our community.

BUT,

If you have no sense of humor, you will not make it far in the open source telecom industry.

If you want a more professional looking site, we do have some guys in suits on our FreeSWITCH Solutions site.

My company is currently investigating a couple of projects that may take
me in the direction of FreeSwitch...  In general, our management does
not often consider open source software for projects such as this, but
I've been successful in proving to them recently that open source can
deliver.

FreeSwitch is a *very* professional and polished product, I can tell -
from the code and from the community.

Unfortunately, I've been hesitant to send people to your webpage lately
because it went downhill a few weeks ago.  Whenever I think about one of
our executives going to your webpage (after my recommendation) and
seeing a picture of people clanking beer glasses, or some idiot tied up
in phone cables, I cringe.  I know you're advertising for ClueCon, but
honestly, some of those huge images on your front page really knock your
product down a peg in professionalism.

Anyway, I'm pretty new to the community and I don't claim to be a web
designer.  You have an excellent piece of software, but if I didn't
already know that about FreeSwitch, your webpage would not make a good
first impression.

Please take that for what it's worth...  I wanted to voice my opinion
because if I'm thinking it, others may be as well.
Thoughts anyone?

(Have I mentioned how awesome your source browser is though??!!)
