Hi !

There are some changes to the Zope Portal at 

http://zdp.zope.org/portals/

All Subjects and Topics are now either signed as recommended
or not.

For transparency, the listing of subjects and topics now
has an indication on how many user contributed items have
been added.

The page now has the following guideline on the top of the page,
which will help new visitors, and hopefully not annoy returning
ones:

   Choose a Subject or Topic in your Portal (Subjects are contained in
   Portals. Topics are contained in Subjects.) 

   The number of links, comments and drafts contributed by visitors is
   displayed in parenthesis behind the Topics (Only if the number is
   greater than zero).

   Topics that are not yet recommended reading are displayed in
   italics. (To be recommended, a Topic must either have an abstract
   describing the Topic, or have links to resources that may be of
   interest.)

Subjects and Topics also have a new guideline on top:

   Contribute your knowledge on this Subject/Topic

   If you have an idea for an abstract, add a Draft. 
   If you have a good link on the Subject/Topic, add a Link. 
   If you have a comment or suggestion on the Subject/Topic, add a Comment.

   You may use the predefined searches to find further information in
   external search engines. If you find something that may be of value
   for others, return to this Topic, and share it with the Zope community. 

Greetings,

Maik Röder
