Had a second look..

The above is added because eo.ooo is not static and uses the
Project-Description header (the stuff with "Message from the owner(s)")

This unfortunately adds an Description header and a opening <p> tag.

This renders the following <h2>-Element invalid. Still IE should handle
this more gracefully (or it is not the cause of the display problems)..

You can do nothing about that. One solution would be to make eo.ooo
static or to modify the project-home servlet/template.

I will check whether I can identify the SourceCast file that is
responsible for that header-part.
