We agree on the "changes needed/let's do some re-writes" part, and  
thanks for the great response.

But I just wanted to point out that DIYers would not be the #1 target  
for me, at least not for the features part. Much like the  
documentation, the features section should focus on the power/ 
flexibility/capabilities in a user neutral way. For instance, I would  
still like to see more developers and web designers choosing the  
platform. Especially designers/consultants who would deploy a lot of  
sites for clients -- I'd love to have another Development Seed  
participating in the Drupal ecosystem.

P.S. And if you think the aggregator is powerful, wait until you see  
John VanDyk's Publish-Subscribe architecture...
