Steve, wouldn't it be good for the homepage of Rust to have a small news banner/sidebar, so people landing there would be presented with big news?

I do like the homepage for its simplicity, but no-one would know the significance without digging into the 'community' links. If that doesn't seem like an issue, then nevermind. Just a thought.

edit to explain: I'm at work and can't hop into IRC to chat about it.
