This is pretty good :-)

A few thoughts:

- We definitely don't want screeds of text on the front page. I've never 
liked the patronising tone of that bit of text which begins 'Bugzilla is 
one example of a class of programs called "Defect Tracking Systems"' anyway.

- We need to choose a flipping logo and be done with it! :-)

- News shouldn't be at the bottom of the left hand sidebar (it's 
probably moving in website-beta as well.) It's far too hidden.

- The first paragraph is too close to the "About Bugzilla" title.

- The search box's "raised" look is very odd.
