<p dir="auto">Since PDD is not public, might be useful to give context here:</p>
<p dir="auto">This line is mentioned 3-4 times "with an initial “Red Hat Central” page containing the latest and greatest Red Hat developer news" which I do not see as anything but Red Hat Central as it is today is shown to show news and getting started content.</p>

<p dir="auto">last three years: ~500.000 views, about 35000 click-throughs.</p>

<p dir="auto">But not sure what the "news" problem is since for a while now it just shows a single line.</p>
<p dir="auto">Btw. Eclipse Neon does this now too by default via the RSS feed feature.</p>
<p dir="auto">So is it the single line in Central you object to or that you think the PDD is asking for more lines to be used ? (which I don't think it is asking for actually)</p>
