Leiah is also has it on her project list to work on a sooner than later
home page redesign to get things moving. From a 7/25/14 email on Tor
branding projects:  *#5 Tor Home Page* - as discussed during the dev
meeting the objective is not a complete over of Tor's website.  This
project will focus on designing our homepage to be more inviting to people
who want to donate, promoting more Tor downloads, and to promote some key
messages (for example, Invite your friends!.  The more people who use Tor,
the more secure you are, too.").

But if we could get some traction on this that would be great.
