I guess it depends on how much room we have on the page for such a thing. One thought would be to swap LATEST NEWS for UPCOMING TRAINING. That would give more room to what is likely our most sought after information on the front page. > > I *don't* buy the argument that "we can trust EDB so they're exempt > from the restrictions we level on other providers," since we don't > seem to have cut OTG any slack whatsoever despite their contributions. I believe that we should not trust *any* company that is submitting their news through a PR firm. PR firms, lie, on purpose, for profit. They make money on manipulation, not truth or substance.
