Comment:

 I've put together some thoughts and design work to run by everyone.

 '''Information Architecture & Content'''

 I wanted to organize the content in the whole About section, but that
 might be further out. So for now I envisioned the About page as a way to
 talk about both the technology AND the community. These two are what makes
 up the whole of WordPress. I propose 3 sections: Our Mission, Our Story,
 the Bill of Rights.

 This page is geared to engage new people learning about WordPress, and
 strengthen the purpose of WordPress for those already active in the
 community. By splitting into two sections of Technology & Community, I
 hope to guide people into their sections of interest.

 Our Mission - Talks about Democratizing Publishing.
 Our Story - Talks about how we got here.
 Bill of Rights - Talks about the 4 freedoms.

 The two cards in the Our Mission section (ie. Technology & Community) will
 guide readers to:
 * Technology -> Downloads page
 * Community -> Get Involved page

 '''Feedback'''

 1. Are these the right pieces of content to show on the About landingpage?
 2. I need help with the wording of "Technology" & "Community." I think
 "Community" works well, but I'm struggling with the correct wording for
 the ''software''.

 '''Wireframes'''
