Maybe one can discuss first the front page.  Here are a few questions.

- Where should all the links of the current page go?  On sub-pages or 
may some of them (which ones) appear below "Learn",...?  If we move 
them to separate pages, what text must be put on the side of the four 
boxes?

- Do we want the top menu stay as it is or offer drop-downs?  The 
latter reduces the number of clicks but one may prefer to always land 
on the dedicated pages.

- Is the current distinction between more permanent news (managed by 
hand) and RSS feeds enough?  Also, one would certainly like to add 
"Preliminary program is available" under "OCaml 2013".

- Do we want a "Read more" button under "OCaml is an industrial..."?  
Or rather a "What is OCaml?" under "Learn"?

- In the "Packages" table, do we really want an "author" column?  The 
"Package" column is already not wide enough.  One could also think 
about putting in a tooltip the single line describing the package.  
Finally, I do not think OPAM has a "Category" field ATM.
