On my browser the gradient section headers on that draft
suddenly change to grey for the section title text background
(Linux, Firefox 3.0.14).
Personally, I would also say that even this proposal is still
far too heavy (in terms of text content).
We had some similar discussions about the Biopython wiki
based homepage - although our old one was nowhere near
as busy as the current BioPerl main page, it was still not as
welcoming as our current version *tries* to be.
Old:
http://biopython.org/w/index.php?title=Biopython&oldid=2527
New:
http://biopython.org/wiki/Main_Page
It would be easy for you to embed the BioPerl OBF blog
headlines into the main page like we did.
I can dig out links to our mailing list archive if anyone is
interested in the discussion.
