Design Goals

• more "social"
  • recent releases
  • recent downloads
  • featured developers?
  • featured users
    • success stories by companies
    • packages they use, link to their website
    • nice looking logos
• make it easier to get started
  • better description of what pear is and what pear does on front page
  • prominent go-pear download link
  • instructions for linux/mac users
    • maybe do os detection like mozilla site and display appropriate info
    • this might not make as much sense since could be using PEAR on a server and browsing on PC
  • link to getting started tutorial on front page
• links to third-party package repos
• logos and buttons
