Agreed. I belive that we need to communicate the extent of the community,
and the ability to contribute to it in small ways

Are you talking about the whole page or just the text paragraphs? Centering
the whole page would impact all of TYPO3.org, and I feel that it is beyond
what we would be able to accomplish with this frontpage redesign. My vote
would be on a flexible TYPO3.org layout sometime in the future though.

The conventional "wisdom" in usability is to avoid generic terms as links
(eg. read more) but on the flip side "Download latest" is very descriptive
when presented in the right context. It could be that "Download latest
podcast" would work to.
The podcast "Extensions: Special content elements" header must be made
clickable also, but would it be good practice to link it directly to a large
download?

Some changes could be done there.
Thanks for your feedback, appreciated :)
