If we use a slideshow as in
http://duffy.fedorapeople.org/webdesign/fedoraproject.org/fedoraproject.org.3.png
, then we'll have to replace the different slides anyhow. Personally I
wouldn't go with a slideshow and just do something static: the biggest
goal of this website is to show Fedora so maybe we should keep that on
there at all times. We already have the small info boxes ("Your Life
on Fedora" and the other ones) to provide additional information.

Just my 2 cents. But I believe the website redesign is on the agenda
for today's meeting, so we can all talk about it in a few hours
anyway. :)
