Hi Bastien, dear all,
Congratulations on the new release and the new homepage! Some quick
feedback about the new homepage:
I would have expected a link to the release notes from the following
text on http://orgmode.org/org-mode-news.html:
> Latest news
> 2011-12-12 Release 7.8, 7.8.01 and 7.8.02.
I know that the release notes exist, and that they are linked from the
"download" page, but the latter is simply not the only place where I'd
expect them.
Overall I like the new homepage design. Just a minor issue, which, I
think (didn't read the whole thread, just searched for the issue),
hasn't been mentioned so far:
One problematic side-effect of the fixed head bar, at least in Firefox
and Opera, is that is impairs page-wise scrolling. When I hit "page
down", some lines of text (as much as the height of the head bar) is
skipped. If you are lucky enough to _notice_ that, you have to manually
work around by scrolling the page a few lines up again. – But I have no
idea for fixing, other than un-fixing the head bar – which you may find
undesirable for other reasons.
Cheers,
Christoph

You're right, I added a link in the first item of this list,
thanks for suggesting it.

Getting rid of the fixed elements is not that difficult.
If people overall think this would be best, I would have
no objection.
Can someone provide a patch to this effect so that we can
test?
Thanks,

Just to be clear, this is the same as what I reported, so fixing one
fixes the other. (Note: I don't use the Org site much, so it's a
consideration for those who do and for newcomers.)
