Newcomers would probably click "new user & general info" at the left
because it's big and seems relevant. The small icons at the right that
describe the components might not catch their eye (they are overwhelmed by

I suggest the following changes to the main page:
1. Make the components and the download area the "centerpiece" of the
page.
We had lengthy discussions about that. And strong voices said that the
centerpiece must be the download.
Why not simply update the "New user & general info" page so that it
acutally fits?
As you pointed out, it is not a problem finding that button. And that
page is exactly supposed to please new users, not the frontpage.
We could make a prominent Section "About the Product" vs. "About the
Community" vs. "About the Website".
This sounds like a great idea! Right now the "About.." page,
while useful, isn't very friendly. Too much to read through, and
you're right, if I WERE a new user, I wouldn't find this page
helpful.
Volunteers??? :)
