Keep in mind that MediaGoblin is mostly a community project. I'm the only paid fulltime employee at present (and that's thanks to the crowdfunding campaign through the FSF). It's a HUGE project, and there's not a lot of time to go around. So yes, if code's moving by a million miles a minute in the codebase and my job is to make sure that contributors are doing well and that the software is great, that might mean that the homepage might suffer... I can only do so many jobs at once.
And in any case, it's not just a "oh, we tossed an intern at this"; in this case, the person who's working on this is a community member and intern, and is doing work based on a detailed analysis based on another community member's work overviewing all our current messaging: http://lists.mediagoblin.org/pipermail/devel/2013-July/000613.html http://lists.mediagoblin.org/pipermail/devel/2013-July/00061...
So it's not just a matter of, "oh get an intern and toss them at it"!
But hey, if you're bothered by the fact that we're a community project with not a lot of full time resources, you can donate and help us pay for more people to come on as dedicated resources! The crowdfunding campaign we ran through the FSF last year is over, but the donation link still works: http://mediagoblin.org/pages/campaign.html http://mediagoblin.org/pages/campaign.html
Or, feel free to help us out yourself! http://mediagoblin.org/pages/join.html http://mediagoblin.org/pages/join.html
