We have a lot of new projects every day (which is totally awesome!) but only a small fraction of them is meant to be consumed by users.
Currently, we have the "Project will not be listed on home page" checkbox to hide the rest but I think there is a big room for improvement. The main problems with this checkbox IMHO are:
Most of them can be addressed while keeping "the unlisted on homepage" feature but the last one can't. As I see it, we have the following types of projects:
I would call this attribute a "Project purpose".
My idea is to allow users to specify the project purpose when creating it or editing its settings. There may be a small overlap across those categories but the general idea is to allow selecting only one "purpose" for the project. This might have interesting implications.
This "Project purpose" feature makes "Unlisted on homepage", and "New Fedora Review project" features redundant and unifies them under itself.
Alternatively, we can at least mark projects, that conform to some criteria (having information filled in, having a successful build, etc), with some kind of "interesting project" badge and prioritizing them when searching and signalizing this badge to users. So we can at least somehow separate the wheat from the chaff.
But I like the idea of project purpose much better because I imagine the amount of work to implement it might be the same (because this would require some sophisticated caching) and the project purpose has much cooler implications.
