I'm torn because I like them all ;-). But I think I prefer #1 best.

Nice work!

#1 is the style that I like the best.   Looks really good!   We just 
need to decide on the content in the various locations/tabs.

Joe,

You mentioned the navigation - that is an area that we could use a 
little bit of assistance on.  I think the key areas that we could use 
some help on would be what are the primary navigation links (ie what 
should go into the tabs) and the navigation links on the left as these 
will be consistent thoughout the site.  The area on the right can be 
used for featured information.  Does anyone have ideas about what should 
appear on these areas?

You know... we could potentially use this theme for Confluence, same
look and feel, just backed up by wiki.  http://adaptivist.com/ is a
good example of a non-wiki looking website backed by Confluence.

Anyways, just a thought.

Amazing eye candy though :-]  I still kinda like the rounded fauxtabs
in #2, but must admit that #1 is really appealing too... so is #3
actually.

Yes, this requires some thought.  I made a start at a proposal in my 
first response, but I certainly don't claim to know the best 
organization here.

http://www.mail-archive.com/dev%40geronimo.apache.org/msg13619.html

I usually don't like to see what appears to me as a random groupings of 
items or a lot of duplicate links on a page.  But that's just me and I 
can see where it might be helpful to have the same item duplicated in 
several places so that different users can find them where they may 
expect them to be.


It would be good to get some ideas from the home pages of other open 
source projects and from folks with a lot more experience than I 
concerning what a user/developer/etc... would find important for an open 
source project so that we could put the common items in the most obvious 
places and tucked away whatever isn't as common to simplify the view 
(but still be able to locate it without too much searching).


Then again as Erin pointed out, it might be more important to just get 
something that looks reasonable out as quickly as possible for V1 and 
then enhance it as we learn more.
