Log Message:
-----------
Finally publish some of the (unfortunately still too incipient) ideas I have for our new main page, so that others can take a look at what I'm doing.
If you, reader, have any feedback, please don't feel shy to chime in, I'm advancing a tad too slow on this single remaining page!

Also copy the old page into index_old.php, so that we can compare new against old side to side.

Added Paths:
-----------
    trunk/www/index.php
    trunk/www/index_old.php

Removed Paths:
-------------
    trunk/www/index.php

Deleted: trunk/www/index.php

+    <p>The MacPorts Project is an open-source community initiative to design an easy-to-use system for compiling, installing,
+    and upgrading open-source software on the <a href="http://www.apple.com/macosx/">Mac OS X</a> operating system. To that
+    end we provide the <a href="install.php">MacPorts software package</a> under a <a href="http://opensource.org/licenses/bsd-license.php">
+    BSD License</a>, and through it easy access to thousands of <a href="<?php print $guide_url . '#introduction'; ?>">ports</a>
+    that greatly simplify the task of compiling and installing open source software on your Mac.</p>
+    
+    <!-- brief ports tree description: monolithic, no 'stable' and 'unstable' trees; total number of available ports -->
+    <p>We provide a single <a href="ports.php">software tree</a> that attempts to track the latest release of every software
+    title (port) we distribute, without splitting them into &ldquo;stable&rdquo; Vs. &ldquo;unstable&rdquo; categories. There
+    are currently <b><?php print ports_count(); ?></b> ports in it and more are being added on a regular basis.</p>
