I get the impression many of the commenters either don’t know what the AUR is, or have no idea how it works (the AUR guidelines are on top of the front page…)

The latter might be a problem caused by hosting it on the archlinux.org domain: it creates a *feeling* of trust, for the uninitiated.

Yup, 100%. Probably I've spent way too long time trying to make people (in the various AUR submissions here on HN) realize that the AUR probably isn't what they think it is, as most replies/comments about the AUR seems misinformed about what it is for and how it works.

Arch Linux is not for the uninitiated.
