I agree. And as far as I can judge it, this is content that doesn't
take too much time to maintain as it doesn't change too often or at
least not completely.

My impression is that tutorials, documentation, etc. both for users
and developers change a lot more regularly - or at least *should*
change more frequently - which led me to the conclusion that
everything that goes beyond the pure presentation of KOffice should
move to userbase resp. techbase for easier maintenance and better
accessibility.

The main site should of course link to all 'external' resources to
spare the hassle of searching the web to those who are interested. And
vice-versa.

Here is a graphic version of my thoughts/concept, I hope that helps to
discuss the whole affair. :)

Ignore the 'lifestream' for now, I'll cover that later. ;)

What I'd really like to see is a CMS based landing page as this makes
editing of any content so much quicker and easier for everybody. To my
experience, wordpress might be a good choice as it barely needs
technical maintenance (maybe 5mins/month), combines static with
dynamic content and provides a zillion of plugins for every need. I
would be able to set it up though I might need some help on coming up
with a good looking template... (but first things first).

I think this pretty much answers Cornelius' questions, correct me if I'm wrong.
