Great quote, I highly believe in that motto and it has changed my life so
great choice :D

You are right. I haven't mentioned that because it is entirely up to the
user to decide .. however:

Yes, that is great idea. I will try to do it after going through "Upgrade
Or Not To Upgrade" post and make sure it is as easy to understand as
possible.

And, we can add that as well. So, they could have both. This will make our
page (GetUbuntuGNOME) more powerful and useful. Rich of information and
easy to follow.

Indeed. I highly agree with you and second what you mentioned :D

Thanks a lot. I invite everyone to think loudly and share their thoughts.

Once I have free time, I will work on that. Different time zones might make
things a big slower OR faster. Now, I am sharing the same time zone of Tim
and Jackson :)
Sometimes, that is a huge plus as Ubuntu GNOME was the very first flavour
that announced the release of 14.10 even before Ubuntu. Some other time, my
replies to any email on this list might take more than 8 hours due to
different time zones. We (Me, Tim and Jackson) are on +11 GMT at the moment.
