I believe a little toc at the top of the page would be useful for such
kind of users.

Or maybe a set of "teaser" paragraphs, like
FOP (Formatting Objects Processor) is the world's first
print formatter driven by XSL formatting objects and the
world's first output independent formatter.
Read more...
We have a demonstration of FOP Formatting available to help
you get started. Read more...
FOP, as an open source effort, does not have a tightly defined
release schedule. We do have notes on the current status and
future plans, though. Read more...
FOP goals are ambitious, targetting full compliance with
relevant W3C Recommendations. Read more...
And so on. The initial page is smaller and loads faster. The
specific topics can fit a full "first page" in one screen
(for may users), vs. fitting into a full screen's worth of
a three screen page. (There's got to be a better way to
word that, but my coffee pot's still busted.)
Anyone out there with a journalistic background could improve
on my examples quite a bit.
Thanks,
Joe

Re: status on website
Hi, Comment: Good idea. Suggestion: It probably wouldn't hurt to go ahead (on the page) and answer the inevitable, "Can you please tell me when to expect the release FOP0.20.4|FOP10 DR1 announced on your status page?" The same answer that would otherwise appear here, that is. Complaint: My coffee pot is busted. ;) Thanks, Joe Keiron Liddle w.com> cc: Subject: status on website 05/16/2002 04:42 AM Please respond to fop-dev Hi, I added some status info to the website.
