Ideas to refresh the GRASS-Wiki main page

The main page deserves a Refreshment action!

• Remove the GRASS-GIS logo from the "Welcome" box -- duplication not required!
• Licensing info can/should be attached to the welcome box, after the description of GRASS-GIS
• The Donate frame can/should be placed near to the Ohloh link
• The OSGeo Foundation logo can/should be placed below the GRASS-GIS logo (top-left) <-- access to MediaWiki's installation directories is probably required (?)
• Orphan links below the "Donate" frame can be redistributed -- e.g. moved on the very left, permanent, column of the Wiki -- and/or receive a heading
• What's hot should be top-to-bottom, current and newest-to-oldest, timely sorted
• more ideas to come...
