Not to mention that Niels spend quite a lot of work and time on the
migration from D4 to D5, and the decision not to switch to D6 was some

I pretty like the promotional website idea, since all presentation and
skining work could be done on this first one. This work would then make D5
to D6 easier ...
+1 for this second idea !
