[osol-mktg] Re: [ug-discuss] Community Consolidation -- Marketing & UGs

[Xin-Feng Liu]

I agree on the idea.
The only comment is to make sure not to lower the visibility of
marketing community/contents. In the current user_group home page(on the
left side of the screen), the user group list is too long and not very
easy to look up. It might be better to reorganize the content in that
screen section.

Thanks,
