I don't see anything compelling on the CentOS website frontpage that is 
worth going to from the Wiki. But, as I said, if there was a common 
interface on all CentOS sites (wiki, website, forums, mirrors, projects) I 
am all for it.

Currently I am against it because it makes navigation even harder (since 
there is no clear hierarchy).
