Hi Caty,
I like it overall, with a number of caveats (from top to bottom looking at
the interface):
- The orange color of the top banner is a bit too dark. Also, why not
use a gradient image like on the newer 3.5 color themes?
- The download button is not very visible anymore in the menu
- I don't like the "dotted" background of the carousel. Again, I find it
a bit too dark
- I'm not really convinced by the usage of cubes to represent the
relationship between various XWiki projects. On slide 1, it makes it look
like Manager is 10 times larger than the core, when in fact the opposite is
true. On slide 3, the list of cubes on the left isn't very readable either.
I sort of agree with this, indeed the quantity of cubes can be interpreted.
- When hovering the mouse over the menu / carousel I sometimes see some
diagonal stripes flickering over the screen (I'm trying to provide the
steps to reproduce)
Now what I like:
- I like the second slide of the carousel :-)
- I like the fact that fresh information appears on the homepage. One
way to solve the large screen issues could be to make the "References"
column a bit wider and the "Blog" one thinner.
- I like the footer. Indeed, making it generic would be interesting.
Hope this helps,
Guillaume

Very nice Caty!
I have some remarks though...
* Shouldn't there be a prominent and always visibile "Download XWiki"
button somewhere?
* I've noticed that all the current blog posts are really just release
announcements... As Paul said, it's a bit monothematic. I am not sure
that such a big space should be dedicated to this kind information. If
it's just release announcements we might find a better way to use this
space.
* I also agree with Paul and Sorin about the fact that's a bit
overcrowded and fonts are too small (which goes a bit against the
"mainstream" way for building sites, i.e., with big fonts, buttons and
minimal text). Keep in mind that I am on 1920x1080 as well.

Any feedback regarding this work is welcomed.
I'm asking for your vote to make this proposal the default homepage for
XWiki.org.
This is my +1.
Thanks,
Caty
