Hi Dag

It's nice, but I think that a more enterprise look is in order. im just
stating an opinion and prefer not to get shot over this. but this is
enterprise class os. what i am thinking is more clean and segmented
website. as things are now im just not thrilled with it its good to the
point but nothing eye catching. What im thinking is a total redesign of
the site and wiki, i might not be super qualified for the job. But i can
assist.

They should be integrated under the new look, simple to navigate.

my 2 cents canadian ;)
