Hi All,
I finally updated the web site based on the suggestions discussed in this
thread.
These changes should get replicated on the live site within the next hour.
Cheers!

Hi All,
this thread has been dormant for the last month or so. If somebody
thinks we should not update the home page with this content pls speak up
otherwise I will push the update.
I think this new content looks great (it has all your comments already
in) and we should have it out there the sooner the better.
Here is the text
=======================================
Welcome to Apache Geronimo
The goal of the Geronimo project is to produce a server runtime
framework that pulls together the best Open Source alternatives to
create runtimes that meet the needs of developers and system
administrators. Our most popular distribution is a fully certified J2EE
1.4 application server runtime. We are working on our next version of
the server which is based on Java EE 5.
Some of our guiding principles are:
- Easy to use.
- Build servers that are distributed under the Apache Software License.
- Provide runtimes that meet the needs of developers, administrators and
system integrators.
- Integrate with the best open source tooling available like Eclipse.
- Provide frequent releases of our software so users can experience the
newest features and have access to the latest bug fixes.
- Build a community that incorporates multiple disciplines required to
create complex runtime and toolable infrastructure.
=======================================
Cheers!

Welcome to the Apache Geronimo Project!
Our goal is to produce a server runtime framework that pulls together
the best Open Source alternatives to create runtimes that meet the
needs of developers and system administrators. Our most prominent
runtime is a fully compliant J2EE container based on J2EE 1.4. We
are working on our next version of the server which is based on JEE
1.5. Some of our guiding principles are:
- Build servers that are distributed under the Apache Software License.
- Provide runtimes that meet the needs of developers, administrators
and system integrators.

Hey Matt,
It looks a whole lot better from what we have today. Here is my little
rephrasing (including the comments from Jeff and Joe)

btw, shouldn't we mention "easy to use" somewhere? ;-)
