Please let somebody do some real web design for the site before it goes online. I am sure you'll even find people who'll do that for free. The current design is not competitive at all.
Look at all the new CMF sites that are emerging in the community, like ZopeZen, MetaZope, or Zopera. They are all different in design, but IMHO much better than the current one for the new zope.org.
I have heard things like "Zope might be cool, but can you also do NICE-LOOKING sites with it?" quite often, just because the old (and as it seems) new zope.org look so half-baked in design ...
The CMF skin system makes it easy enough to develop new skins around a running site. Our current focus is new.Zope.org running; there are only so many hours in a day! After new.zope.org has launched, we'll take submissions for skin proposals from you volunteers ;) Remember, Zope.org is a community web site! -- Martijn Pieters | Software Engineer mailto:mj@zope.com | Zope Corporation http://www.zope.com/ | Creators of Zope http://www.zope.org/ ---------------------------------------------
