In the early days, people were eager to get listed on the Drupal sites 
page.  We'd get one or two mails a week from people wondering why their 
site didn't show up on the Drupal sites list.  It has been months since 
we got such a mail ...

Also, we'd have a (i) a screenshot gallery, (ii) case studies in the 
handbook, (iii) a Drupal site page and (iv) a showcase forum.  Of all 
these, the sites page is the most popular, yet it isn't the best source 
of information.  Not at all.  Personally, I don't mind replacing the 
existing sites-page with a gallery.

Either way, the Drupal sites page should be the least visible of all 
four.

(The "call home feature" is still useful, especially if it could be 
extended a bit.  It would be nice if the administrator could choose to 
subscribe to important e-mail announcements, or to gather some 
statistics or feedback.)
