Hi Robin,
this is a great design and the first impression visiting the page is
amazing. Personally I prefer version 1 which remembers me of a magazin
like front page.
When using version 4, the following case came into my mind. If you start
reading and the text starts to move away, you need to wait some time
before the slide reappears.
From an information point of view, the front page is great. There is a
short introduction to tell the user what Tapestry is and some room for
more details.
In an analysis I made some time ago for Tapestry, there had been
different types of users. You have already seen the remarks from the
experienced Tapestry users needing a direct link to documentation and
probably news and downloads. Another user type is the architect or CTO
looking for quick information of the project. He is interested in key
features of Tapestry, number of committers, support options, licence,
release cycle, papers and presentations
There is the new user who wants to learn the Tapestry and needs 'getting
started' infos, documentation, community areas and finally somebody who
wants to contribute. The latter needs information about contributing
stands, access to community.
The links you have positioned on the top do not include community and
support.
We do not refer to Apache as well. May be there is a place for a
sentence like ' Tapestry is an Apache Foundation project.'
Below you can find a information grouping I made, when we have discussed
the redesign in 2009.
I hope this time, we are going to succeed and get the main website updated.
Go on guys and core committers don't let this effort silently die again.
Best Regards
Sebastian

Sounds like advertisement for some AOP-framework :)
It could be Tapestry-IoC slogan, then. :)
