Really?  When was that?  We can do it now, anyway.  If Kay is agreeable,
I would like to create a new mail list for fixing the support page.  The
requirement would be to work with Documentation project.  But I am all
for getting that page fixed. I think that the homepage redesign is going
along well enough so that there will not be distraction, especially if a
new list is used for discussions.

The Development pages are not at all the same as the "Contributing"
pages.  Let's say we add to Development landing page two buttons:

* Contributing Code  
* Contributing Other Works 

With the bottom one sending people to "Contributing" pages.  

The top tab could then read, "Contributing." 

But that makes it one step more difficult for those who are not already
developers of OOo to find out how to become such.  That is why I prefer
to have a tab that says, "Developer."  To make it seem as if we are
interested in *new* developers.  

Cheers,
Louis
