Re: [dita-fa-edboard] Tweaking the navigation

When you have a minute, please take a look at http://bpel.xml.org. This focus
area is still under construction, but I used the space to play around a bit
with the FA navigation in an effort to encourage contributions and make it
easier for people to quickly understand what's on the site. Instead of
organizing around "Knowledge base, Today, and Wiki", we give people ways of
interaction--Browse, Contribute, Discuss, Syndicate.

The wiki pages are the only Drupal "book" on the site, so users can easily add
new pages into the outline. The outline will be displayed in full at
http://bpel.xml.org/wiki-pages .

The homepage body features teasers of the five most recent pages. We can make
our current <soapbox> article "sticky" so it's always the first.

We could eliminate or reduce the horizontal orange rule and move everything up
a bit.

We could move the Search box to the upper right corner and move "About this
site" into the footer.

Please let me know what you think.
