Redesign of the www.rockbox.org front page
perfectdrug:
With 9 and 11 I like that you have kind of an active Supported players section. So that the new user has to click for his player, to find if it is supported or not. This prevents in my opinion misreading.
The new design looks pretty slick, keep up the good work :) !

My suggestion is more subtle (or perhaps more radical) than that. The problem IMO is that the current site is too big, and full of lots of information users don't need.
The idea is that www.rockbox.org should be designed around users of Rockbox - not "us" (i.e. the developers and people who regularly post in the forums). I would go as far as saying it should be written from scratch. The entire site could be implemented as a wiki, making it more under the control of users.
devs.rockbox.org would be more or less what the current site is, including the existing wiki content.
But it's just an idea - I've only thought about it for about 10 minutes...

I disagree 100%.
I did not see a white band, I saw three distinct areas with three distinct types of content. The white bar was not the main focus in my initial impression.

While I would call it dev.rockbox.org I quite like the idea.
