Have to agree. Fedora, Debian, Ubuntu, etc. all have no-nonsense
main pages. Make it too "marketingy" and there's a risk of
seeming desperate. Not to sure what the twitter feed brings
to the table except to show not many folks are tweeting...

On the other hand I suppose a corporate look might make OI
seem more mature but it would be rather different to all
the Linux offspring. Oracle and HP both have rather
minimalist home pages, too...
