Michael and I were tasked with making the front page of the Linaro wiki a little more developer focused and offloading some of the other information to the main website, linaro.org.
We've put together a prototype page and would like to get some feedback before making the real switch:

"Downloads and Cycles" should be simplified and splitted: - "Downloads" information should be offloaded to the main website and link to http://www.linaro.org/downloads/ - "Cycles" should keep the introduction text and link to /Cycles subsection - the 3 tables should be moved under /Cycles - Use a single column instead of two. - Add a table of contents?

+1 on what Fathi said.
I wonder if we can't provide a more direct link to the whole topic of "Getting Involved". While some people want to enable their hardware or their own development, but I couldn't find a trail of fewer than 3 links to something like "Send mail to linaro-dev@lists.linaro.org and introduce yourself, we'd love to help you participate".
cheers, Jesse

The most direct link to this is actually outside of the wiki:
http://www.linaro.org/getting-started/
From this page we try to point you to the most direct links possible given
your use case. I'm sure this page could be improved on, so I'm always open for suggestions. Specifically let me us know if you think we aren't covering a common scenario.
The new front page actually points to this page as well. So hopefully there won't be quite as much redirection going forward.
