<p dir="auto">Nominating.</p>
<p dir="auto">This includes rust-lang.org, the tutorials, guides, manuals and API docs.</p>
<p dir="auto">I think most of us value the spare style on our home page, so we want to preserve that general aesthetic, though not that specific design. We need something attractive and consistent across all of our pages, that can be adapted to additional content as our needs grow. Some existing examples that we like are <a href="http://www.sinatrarb.com/" rel="nofollow">sinatra</a>, <a href="http://nodejs.org/" rel="nofollow">node</a>, <a href="http://brew.sh/" rel="nofollow">homebrew</a>.</p>
<p dir="auto">Remember that Rust is a community project, and for engineers; the purpose of our web presence isn't to sell to managers; let's just present the facts cleanly.</p>
<p dir="auto">This task probably also includes reevaluating what content is on the front page of rust-lang.org and rewriting it.</p>
<p dir="auto">The web page should probably, like the above examples, tell you very simply how to install Rust, and point you at the docs and other resources, and not much else. Maybe a very brief elevator pitch.</p>
