[site] shorter descriptions on index
The descriptions of the components on the index page seemed quite
wordy and noisy to me when I was trying to create a one page summary,
so I edited out the redundant text and chopped it down a bit. Here's
the modified index page:
http://people.apache.org/~bayard/commons.html
Any interest?

I went ahead and did this. Still have to do it for the Dormant ones though.

+1 on almost all of this.
I think codec should mention phonetic/base64/URL, as "encode/decode" is
just a little to general to give an idea of its purpose.
Lang could perhaps be "Utilities similar to standard java.lang classes"
or somesuch.
CSV can be further compressed: "Reading and writing comma separated
value files".
id: "Generate globally unique identifiers"

Simon
