/rant - sorry
maemo.org should have "marketing" group that actively advertises stuff going on around here. Also "ad" banners that get updated constantly telling what is going on and where some help is needed should be there without even having to had some insightful conversation with bright minds about it. This place has flavor of "academic" strongly written across it and by this I do not mean good :|

.edit
Less text more images with links. Something like this:

Clutter free layout where you can find all tidbits but they are under the hood.
