+<h2>About This Site</h2>
+
+<p>This website is the central source of information about Subversion
+ and the community which gives it life. Here, you'll find resources
+ that are useful to existing and potential Subversion users and
+ developers alike. Want to read about Subversion's features? Need
+ to download the latest Subversion release? Perhaps you've thought
+ of a great enhancement and you're wondering how to share the idea
+ with the developers? This site will help you do all that.</p>
+
+<p>Who is this site <em>not</em> aimed at? Well, there are many
+ third-party tools which exist as part of the greater Subversion
+ ecosystem, but aren't part of the core project itself. Subversion
+ clients such as TortoiseSVN, or Subversion's integrations into
+ various IDE's such as Eclipse and NetBeans, or the pure Java
+ implementation of Subversion called SVNKit — these are all
+ valuable pieces of the Subversion story, but each is managed as its
+ own project outside of the core Subversion offering. This site
+ really isn't so much about those projects.</p>
+
+<p>The sections below provide a high-level overview of how this
+ website is organized, making reference to
+ the <a href="#site-nav-menu">navigation menu</a> you should find on
+ the left-hand side of each page of the website.</p>
+
+<div class="h3" id="site-overview-about" title="site-overview-about">
+<h3>The "About Subversion" Section</h3>
+
+<p>The "About Subversion" section of the website is Information
+ Central. You can read the latest Subversion
+ <a href="/news.html">News</a>, learn about Subversion's rich set
+ of <a href="/features.html">Features</a>, and consult various
+ sources of <a href="/doc/">Documentation</a> about Subversion and
+ the processes that govern that interactions of the Subversion
+ community. There's a <a href="/faq.html">Frequently Asked
+ Questions (FAQ)</a> page, as well as some forward-looking material
+ in the form of a feature <a href="/roadmap.html">Roadmap</a>.</p>

+<h3>The "Getting Subversion" Section</h3>
+
+<p>Learning about Subversion is great, but the real fun is in applying
+ that knowledge. The "Getting Subversion" section of the website is
+ all about making sure Subversion finds it way into your hands.
+ This community releases source code archives of the various
+ Subversion versions, which you can get via
+ the <a href="/source-code.html">Source Code</a> menu. (That's also
+ a good place to look for instructions on checking out Subversion's
+ source code from the repository in which it lives.) But if you'd
+ rather not deal with building Subversion yourself, there are a
+ number of places where you can get precompiled
+ <a href="/packages.html">Binary Packages</a> of Subversion, built
+ for various platforms.</p>

+<h3>The "Community" Section</h3>
+
+<p>The other sections of the website are primarily about getting
+ — the "Community" section is where you interact and give.
+ Here, you'll learn about the <a href="/mailing-lists.html">Mailing
+ Lists</a> where Subversion-related discussions occur and about
+ the <a href="/issue-tracker.html">Issue Tracker</a> where bugs and
+ enhancement requests are reported. We'll tell you about the
+ various ways you can be <a href="/contributing.html">Getting
+ Involved</a> with the project. And if you're a developer or
+ would-be developer of Subversion, we've even got a page
+ of <a href="/dev/">Developer Resources</a> especially for you.</p>
