Next I'd like to move to the three tier approach; but without changing content or removing nav-options etc.
http://www.apache.org/~bayard/jakarta-3tier.html
Obviously, with 3-tiers there is less room in the centre, though a lot of that is made up by a tighter LHS navbar.
Following a move to a 3-tier, I'd like to replace the Welcome message with the one from the mock-up:
*************************************************************************
The Jakarta Project offers a diverse set of open source Java solutions and is a part of The Apache Software Foundation (ASF) which encourages a collaborative, consensus-based development process under an open software license.
Jakarta is organized into subprojects, summarized in the section below. The ASF contains other Java projects, some of which were a part of Jakarta, that are detailed on the ASF Project page.
It is recommended that users of Jakarta products subscribe to the Jakarta announcements mailing list.
*************************************************************************
and as that helps the front page feel a lot cleaner, I'd be looking to do both the 3-tier and the new Welcome at the same time.
So, further thoughts on both the welcome message and the 3-tier?
[The aim is to use inline styles for the interim, and then migrate to a real css sheet later].
