two menus for all kde.org subsites?

[Jason Bainbridge]

It was quite a long and drawn out discussion, we finally came to the
decision that for subdomains it would be best for a one sided menu as
they are content based and not navigation based. Although having said
that I can see your point about including the two menu's on the front
page and have made the change on usability already, it actually looks
better as it was a bit bare previously.

Regards,
Jason

I don't recall that discussion.

So why is the index page of www.konqueror.org not to provide access to
other 
pages via links?

I don't believe that's true at all. There tends not to be a huge amount
of 
"important information" on index pages, just links to other pages, which

adding a second menu would assist.
