I think there won't be much discussions about the goals (maybe

Actually I have a draft for a renewed site, will look at
implementing
that (hopefully with Sebastian, Söhnke, and others) in the next
few month.
So far haven't found an angle at breaking up the story though,
it's fairly intermingled. If we can't do it incrementally, that
would require a bit more orchestration for a major rerelease.
- better search, also on README bodies (e.g. sqlite FTS)
- tagging instead of hierarchical categories
- ranking (downloads, stars, dependents, testing...)
- better landing page (big search form and listing 10 top, 10
trending,
and 10 newest packages)
- better GH integration
Maybe something to add ( for new users ) is something similar to:

Easy to use, lots of information, simple tasks that involve
interaction for the user, feedback on success.
