Website frontpage style
I was wondering if we could have a better format for the frontpage of the
ComDev website, and worked on a quick prototype available in [1] and would
appreciate any feedback on it.

Make it so!
Agreed with Suresh and Rich: header is too big, and can just be "Apache
Community Development". Then explain in the text about "Apache
Community Development Project (ComDev) does cool stuff..."
I agree that a text block in the lower half titled "The Apache Way"
would be a key addition, with a brief explanation and links to other sites.

Hi Luciano,
This is very nice, the information is nicely organized. Few suggestions:
* I think the "Welcome to the Community Development (ComDev)!" is too big and distracting. How about changing it to h2?
* The information about ComDev PMC is very informative, but I am not sure if the third column needs highlighting. Can the banner text include a 4th paragraph with links and use the third column for other information?
* Can the third column be used to define and describe "Apache Way"?
Great modifications over all,
Suresh

Love it. Thanks for the work.
If I were to make one comment it would be to drop the "welcome to" and just
have the name.
