[themes] Multi-Column Content: Drupal 6 Panels alternative

[Maciej Perlinski]

Well speaking on the themes group it shouldn't be so hard to use
page-front.tpl.php to create additional column and use views for displaying
content... Until you can use panels at least - but this solution is 10
minutes work and for panels you ll wait much longer=)
