> * Revising the footer to match spins.fp.o.  I think the spins.fp.o

>  information and a lightweight site map.

> * Providing an appropriate element somewhere to drive interested
>  traffic to Red Hat as our sponsor.  The footer contains an element
>  for this, but I think we can do something more prominent (without
>  overwhelming any of the other page elements).

> * Settle the panda question. :-)

> * We need people to provide more content for the rotating stories on
>  the page.  I think there's a neglected ticket for this here:

> * Use the fonts on which the Design team ultimately settles.  (And by

All noted! I'm actually editing the page right now, some of this is
already in there. Right now it's just my own personal brainstorming
space. In the end I'll provide something more readable. :)
