0.7 sure will be a milestone, and needs time to be operational. 3rd party service development & integration is going to boost the platform. And the fact that you can build shells of services opens some very interesting prospects. Especially in terms of scalability & load balancing. This is all VERY exciting.
As for the new website : way to go ! The design is beautiful and has a very professional and "Mac/Xbox/...(your favorite graphical visual environment here)" feel to it, which in my opinion can really make the difference for newcomers on the threshold of a decision, especially as comes to a graphics oriented platform.
