It would be helpful if the material on the frontpage of the SELF Platform is made dynamic. As of now, the blocks which represents some teams gives some information which remains static. These blocks can be made editable, such that the SELF team members can be able to upload, edit, or modify the information and keep it updated.

I fully agree with the COM team that the current SELF Platform frontpage is not very effective nor as dynamic as one would expect from a platform like SELF.
The proposed changes however don't make it more dynamic. I think Nagarjuna's ideas of presenting the most active, most popular and most recent contributions etc make much sense.
Maybe a combination of dynamically generated content and some editable fields will be best, for presenting latest news, maybe a highlighted object with comments from the frontpage editors.
I agree with Meena that we need a special user role for managing the frontpage, that could be the same as the manager role or we might need to create an additional role.
