If it's just finding the docs, perhaps the home page needs to provide a more obvious switchboard to the site. There are now three main areas, Struts 1, Struts 2, and the Struts Project (shared pages). Maybe the same type of big-ass buttons we have on the the Struts 2 page.
Perhaps we should also add some "Read the Manual" links to the top of the Mailing List page. * http://struts.apache.org/mail.html On the top page, the first support link is "User Mailing List", and so maybe newbies aren't digging deeper first.
