We are going to remove it as it was an earlier design element that no
longer suits the revised style of the site.

Shouldn't take longer to load, this is a statically generated site
except for a few dynamic pages (like the Libraries). However, we have
also not put any efforts into optimizing page loads (that comes last).

Yes well.. that's not a "real" page, we just slapped it together (see
my earlier reply to Ion).

Yes there is, that's why we are doing this open beta, and not meddling
with the live website at boost.org. So that we can ensure nothing is
missing, everything is accounted for, and all voices are heard. And
probably I want to test it for at least one release - we would release
both in the live site and in the new site, and see how the release
goes in the new site, to ensure we don't miss a release because
something is wrong with the new code.
