the main motivation is that it's good for search engine indexing but
we don't record enough information so it probably not worthwhile in
this case

We already have a news page, I didn't like to have 3 views of the same
content (box, short news, full page news).
IMHO the only alternative is putting the full content of the 2008 news
in homepage and leave only old news in the news page (renaming the menu
title "News Archive" and moving it down), but I prefer it as it is in
the proposed link.

cool :-)
like the text flowing round the news summary. wonder whether it would
be more visible on the left.
was wondering whether retaining the news text at the bottom of the
page might be worthwhile. news is good for search engines but the
james news contains too little explanation for this to apply. not
sure.

I committed the changes to produce this:
http://people.apache.org/~bago/project/
WDYT?
I didn't commit the generated stuff to www because I expect you to tally
jsieve vote soon and to add a news for that, too.
So no need to waste regeneation time/svn-space for such a change in
short time.

we could keep a limited list of the most recent stories pretty much
right at the top (five, say) and then link to a more comprehensive
news section at the bottom

That's great! Thank you so much for this much better home.
Maybe the news and the apachecon box are now too much in the bottom, but
I don't have a good way to make it better.
