    I'll ask our tech director if he agrees, just to be sure.

    By the way - I think Cayenne deserves better web page (a more consolidated
    look). There should be no old news on the front page. Old news is much worse
    than no news at all. There should be link to tutorials on the front page.
    The navigation is confusing - there should be no Show Children link in
    Confluence documentation. A link to PDF documentation would also get newbies
    up to speed more quickly, not to mention the book ;-) If Cayenne is to be
    more recognized, good technology is not enough, but I am sure we all know
    that. Now, how can I help?

    Cheers,
    Borut
