Review of Web Site Front Page

Dorte,

 1. I notice that the problem with the page footer persists.  Is this something others can work on?

 2. On the home ("Welcome") page, the "Development mailing list" link attempts to immediately open an email message.  It is better that this be a link to a page that describes the mailing list, how to post to it, how to subscribe, etc.  Simply sending a mail to the mailing list is not informative.

 3. Having "Issues" go directly to JIRA will also be surprising to folks who are seeking information about issues and how to participate with regard to issues (add them, work on them, etc.).

 4. The Wiki link is fine.  There is now much work to be done on the Wiki concerning reformatting of the migrated pages.

 5. I am conflicted about the Twitter feed being given prominence on the Welcome to Corinthia page.  It's not any sort of official news from the project and inviting tweets to it doesn't seem to have any significance.  The 5 followers are all on the PPMC.  (PS, if you leave the welcome page and come back via browsers "Back" the Twitter control does not reappear.)

There is one common difficulty on all views.  At the bottom, the Apache incubator material is too close to the browser frame margins compared to the other portions of the page.  This is more bothersome on mobile devices because the edge of the frame is the edge of the screen.  Also, the text that accompanies the Incubator symbol is too small and the interline spacing is too great.

Great work!
