To pootle.org then? But why? I would only link it on the bottom of 
the translations... site (something like "look, this is the software 
we are using for translation" ... ;) )

Would it possiblee to split it? On the main page only 
feeds/blogposts/tweets/dents/whatsoever releated to announcements, 
on the "Get Involved" page the feeds/... from devs/QA about related 
stuff? And maybe for each NL's pages that in their own language? But 
I am not sure, if this is possible ... :(

For that reason I mentioned the openSUSE site (or maybe other sites, 
that may also use some kind of calendar) ... ;) I would like to see 
something like their "News & Events" thingie on our pages (maybe 
split as well across our different subsites: On the main site maybe 
only a calendar with next releases, international trade fairs etc., 
on the different subsites like "Get Involved" one for next QA Call, 
next QA bug hunting session, something like that ... ;)

O.K. But why would you put the German imprint there, when it is in 
the footer of the page?

Below the "About" page? I would – as a visitor – expect it more 
below the download page ... ;)
Thank you for your explanation
Thomas.
