* Can we replace the ad with something else? Anything else? The color
choices are horrible. The site is sad enough already (any word on the
new one anyone?)

* Who makes the decision of what goes on the site? Core? The -www list?
Marc? Is there a process?

* Why not at least have a "news item" that explains why the banner is
there, why people should be concerned, and what it might mean to
the PostgreSQL project. Asking people to click on a banner ad mentioning
Brussels is not going to entice many people to learn more.
