Well, I think that on an overloaded page the important content can
never get the right amount of attention. I'd say:
* remove "Forums" and "Documentation Updates" (both are not really
important, the latter is important to admins only, but those can use
the "content" admin section, for example)


Removing the Forums entries may be OK, but not the Documentation Updates.

One of the requirements of the new website was to make progress more obvious, and the documentation has been identified as a key area of the project. It is therefore important to show progress being made in this area as well. This box does just that.

* simplify the development section on the front page

What is there to simplify being that developers are our key targets at this point in time?

(and later it
should go away, completely)

This will be determined depending on the needs of the project. Let's not try to predict the future. :-)

* reduce the number of quick-links on the front page

Doing as you suggest goes against our specific goals of exposing more content and showing more progress.

* make links more obvious (some better color, bold text) 

Good idea. Petter?

Cheers,

Koki
